The Praja Rajyam is putting together a case to move the High Court seeking certain relaxations in the guidelines imposed by the Director-General of Police for conducting road shows.
Like most other parties, the Praja Rajyam too had welcomed the interim orders of the High Court on December 30 banning road shows by political parties and asking them to follow the guidelines laid down by the DGP.
Praja Rajyam president K. Chiranjeevi told The Hindu that while it was surely a relief, the DGP’s conditions appeared to be tough. “We find the conditions harsh. However, we will follow the law. But, as we have been legally given the option of moving the court again in the event of the DGP’s conditions being unfair, we will take legal recourse,” he said.
Asked about the modifications for his tour of Nellore and Prakasam districts from January 4, the megastar-turned-politician said, the party was still working out how best it could use the opportunity. “We have given the district police a list of our vehicles. We don’t wish to put the general public to any inconvenience, but it is the job of the police to regulate the vehicles,” he said.
Visibility
Mr. Chiranjeevi said his tour managers were trying to chalk out a plan that would give maximum visibility to the public while still not putting anybody to inconvenience. But there were things like whether travelling on top of his ‘Praja Ankitha Ratham’ and waving to the crowds could be a violation or not, he said.
