Some opposition parties support Jagan's protest

YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy staged a day-long protest against "post-poll violence" in Andhra Pradesh at Jantar Mantar here and received support from INDIA bloc parties and AIADMK.

Reddy demanded imposition of President's rule in the state. He alleged that violence had been perpetrated by the ruling TDP cadres. Reddy had invited all political parties to highlight the attacks. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders Sanjay Raut and Priyanka Chaturvedi, Trinamool's Nadimul Haq and AIADMK's M Thambidurai were among those who condemned the alleged attacks.

In response, TDP MPs held a press conference and accused Reddy of "diversion politics".
