AP Home Minister Anitha Urges Police with Past Government Loyalties to Step Down

Andhra Pradesh Home Minister Vangalapudi Anitha suggested that police officers who still hold ideologies from the previous government should step aside. She emphasized that the police should work in favor of the people. Anitha stated that those who continue to behave as they did previously should voluntarily move aside. She added, "Please... if you step aside, those who will work will come forward. We are not asking you to work for Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, or the NDA. Work for the people."
