The Telugu Desam party district unit leaders from Dharmavaram, in Ananthapuram, staged dharna in front of NIMS Hospital, on Friday. The agitators vented their ire over Security personnel, for not permitting them to visit Mr.Naidu, who was shifted to ICU, the previous day. Later, They had apparently devised a strategy to negate the effect on their agitation that would have occurred due to police taking them into custody after a few minutes of protest.
