Bloodshed in picturesque Araku tribal agency shocks people

Visakhapanam, Sep 24 (UNI) The picturesque Araku valley in the eastern Ghats in the district — one of the hot tourist destinations in Andhra Pradesh was utterly desolate on Monday, as Maoists on Sunday shot dead the sitting MLA, K Sarveswara Rao, and the former MLA, S Soma, both Telugu Desam party leaders.

Bandh was observed in the Araku valley and the nearby areas on Monday in protest against the killing of the two leaders, who were cremated with State honours. Andhra Pradesh State Home Minister and Deputy Chief Minister N Chinarajappa said, It is a reprehensible, desperate act by Maoists in the area to show that they are still a force to reckon with. We will take all steps to tackle the problem.
