Alleged YSRCP worker chops off another worker’s hand; party accused of politicising
New Delhi: In Andhra Pradesh, a series of violent incidents, including murders and a brutal attack resulting in the victim’s hands being cut off, have been attributed to political tensions, with accusations and counter-accusations between the YSRCP and TDP.
Sharing the video of the brutal murder in the full public view on Wednesday in Vinukonda town in Palnadu district, YSRCP tagged the President of India Draupadi Murmu in the early hours on Thursday.
“We are seeking support from every Indian and need your kind intervention and SAVE the people of Andhra Pradesh,” YSRCP wrote.
Good morning, Madam @rashtrapatibhvn! It’s a very bad morning here in Andhra Pradesh. 💔
We are seeking support from every Indian and need your kind intervention and SAVE the people of Andhra Pradesh. 🙏🏻
We are also part of INDIA. 🇮🇳#SaveAndhraPradesh pic.twitter.com/yjXzugFBSp

The post was quickly fact-checked and it came to light that both the persons involved were from YSRCP itself.
Later, Andhra police said in a statement that the murder was not political.
The incident that happened in Vinukonda is not political, confirmed by the police.
