Pithapuram, in Andhra Pradesh, is getting a lot of attention because Pawan Kalyan is running for office there. But with attention also comes some risks, and the Intelligence Department has issued a warning.
They say there might be violent riots in Pithapuram on June 4th, the day of the vote count. The Election Commission (EC) has been told to take action to prevent this by increasing security.
Pawan Kalyan and YCP’s Vanga Geetha are both running for office in Pithapuram, and it’s expected to be a close race. Tensions are running high in this area.
Both Pawan Kalyan and Vanga Geetha are likely to be in Pithapuram on June 4th, so their supporters will be very active. This could lead to trouble, according to the Intelligence Department.
The EC has asked the police to keep an eye on people who were involved in violence during the elections in this area. They might be detained on June 4th to prevent more violence.
All of this shows that this election in Pithapuram is one of the most intense in Andhra Pradesh so far.
