A small dried up well in front of the house was filled up and a passage was created to approach the house. “However, the Chief Minister’s brothers bore a grudge against me and got a veterinary hospital constructed in front of my house. Yet, I did not object as they assured to leave some space next to the hospital for passage to my house,” Sai Reddy said in the note.
“After accusing me of having political affiliations, they tried to get a wall constructed cutting off my house. I do not belong to any party and I belong to God’s party.
