Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader KT Rama Rao slammed traffic police after a video emerged of them abusing and slapping a citizen in Cyberabad area of the city.
Taking to his social media account on X, KTR questioned the police about their use of language and inappropriate behavior. “What absolute garbage language is this @TelanganaDGP? Is this acceptable behaviour? Please remember that it is the citizens that pay the salaries of the police men & officials.
My tweet is not just about one incident but have been watching several videos in social media where cops are behaving in a highly inappropriate manner with the citizens. I hope you conduct sensitisation classes to change the behaviour of the policemen who are in direct contact with citizens.”
Responding to the tweet, Telangana Police said the incident occurred within the jurisdiction of the Cyberabad Jeedimetla Traffic Limits and disciplinary action has been taken against the responsible officer, who has since been transferred from that station.
The BRS also remarked that the Congress government is enabling ‘abusive policing’ and is replacing ‘friendly policing’ from their tenure.
