Telangana employees laid siege to State Secretariat bringing the traffic to a grinding halt on Saturday, in protest against the ill-treatment meted out to them by the Secretariat security staff against their leaders.
The Telangana NGO leaders who were called for a meeting by the group of ministers for a talk on the non-cooperation movement, were prevented by the security staff from entering the Secretariat. The TNGO leaders alleged that the security personnel behaved rudely with them. Within minutes, the Telangana employees gathered in large numbers, as the employee leaders announced boycott of the talks.
The protesters squatted on the road, demanding suspension of five security officials. The employees brought the traffic to a halt on the Secretariat road, as they raised slogans. Senior police officials tried to pacify them and hold talks with the leaders, but the situation did not come under control.
Interestingly, Textile Minister P Shankar Rao, who came to Secretariat to attend the duties, got down from the car and joined the protestors. A couple of Telangana MLAs, too, supported the protesting employees. It complicated the matter further. Finally, the other ministers had to intervene to resolve the crisis.
