For the first time after launching the Praja Rajyam Party in August last, party president Chiranjeevi was arrested by the police, for staging a demonstration at the office of Chief Rationing Officer at Secunderabad, disrupting the public order.
Wearing a garland of vegetables, Chiranjeevi squatted before the CRO office along with other leaders Devender Goud and Shobha Rani and raised slogans like a true political leader. He was later arrested by the police and shifted to the police station.
Perhaps, it is also for the first time that Chiranjeevi participated in an agitational programme, ever since he launched the party. Till the elections, he was under the impression that he would become the Chief Minister; but after being forced to sit in the opposition, he has not taken up a single programme of agitation.
Apparently realizing that he is losing out in the race and the people might soon forget him as a leader, Chiranjeevi was compelled to take to streets and court arrest. Perhaps, he got the best media coverage on Thursday. Hope he will go all out in the coming days to prove himself!
