Hyderabad: Election Commission of India (ECI) cracked a whip on Superintendent of Police (SP) of Suryapet district for allegedly showing favour towards ruling TRS party candidate in the byelection bound Huzurnagar assembly constituency.
Based on a complaint lodged by the BJP with the commission in New Delhi, EC transferred the police official, R Venkateswarlu and appointed R Bhaskaran as SP with immediate effect.
The opposition parties, including Congress held demonstrations against the SP for not acting against TRS leaders on poll code violation in certain segments.
