In Andhra Pradesh YSRCP Leaders Have Flagged Concern About Law & Order After Repetitive Attacks.

Amravati; February 2026: The law & order situation in Andhra Pradesh has been reportedly plummeted after the political fiasco leading to the repetitive attacks on YSRCP leaders by the Chandrababu led TDP government.

Yesterday on 01st February 2026, residence of former minister Jogi Ramesh was vandalised and

set on fire a day after an attack on former minister Ambati Rambabu. According to local sources, hundreds of TDP followers descended on Jogi Ramesh’s residence at Ibrahimpatnam, and have  ransacked the premises, damaged household articles, and torched parts of the house, triggering panic in the locality. Residents said the attackers acted in an organised manner, leaving behind destruction and fear.

YSRCP leaders alleged that Jogi Ramesh, a well-known BC leader, was deliberately targeted, pointing to a pattern of political intimidation. While YSRCP leaders while condemning the attack yesterday have complained about a complete breakdown of law and order.

Meanwhile, police yesterday while acting on the directions of Guntur District Superintendent of Police Vakul Jindal, have tightened security at the residence of Ambati Rambabu, former minister and YSRCP Guntur district in-charge, following alleged vandalism by TDP activists. Additional police personnel have been deployed at Ambati Rambabu’s residence and office located in the Vikas Nagar area. A local police official said, “A large number of TDP activists gathered outside Ambati Rambabu’s house on Saturday night. The group allegedly damaged his residence and office, vandalised vehicles parked on the premises, and set some of them on fire”.

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) workers on Saturday staged a violent protest at the office of the Guntur district YSRCP president, Ambati Rambabu, in Vikas Nagar, triggering a heavy police deployment and tense scenes in the city. A large group of TDP cadres reached the YSR Congress Party district office and the residence of the former minister, pelting stones and attacking the premises with sticks and other objects. The protest was launched in response to alleged abusive remarks against Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu as attributed to have been initiated by Ambati Rambabu.

Meanwhile, former minister and YSRCP leader Ambati Rambabu was remanded to 14 days of judicial custody by the Guntur court and sent to Rajahmundry Central Prison in connection with a case related to alleged derogatory remarks against Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, according to the YSRCP legal cell. This comes after the YSRCP leader was arrested at his residence in Vikas Nagar in Guntur on Saturday (31st January 2026) after police had surrounded the place, took him into custody, and escorted him in a police van, according to Guntur West DSP.

Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council, Botcha Satyanarayana, tried to contact the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police to bring the situation to their immediate attention. However, both senior officials reportedly did not respond to his calls, raising serious questions about

the government’s response to a life-threatening incident, it added.

Following this, the former Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party president, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, spoke to former minister Ambati Rambabu over the phone after he was targeted in a deliberate murder attempt by TDP goons, according to an official statement.
