KTR Fumes Over Infant's Death in Kummera Jatara Caste Attack; Demands Justice
•BRS Working President KTR expressed strong anger over the death of a two-month-old infant due to caste discrimination at Kummera Mallanna Swamy Jatara.
•He criticized the Congress government and police for their conduct, stating Telangana society should be ashamed of the caste-driven incident.
•KTR demanded immediate arrest of eight accused, Rs. 1 crore compensation, and a government job for the victim's family.
•The incident occurred on February 18 when a family was attacked at the temple entrance over ticket money and caste, leading to the infant's death on February 21.
