The ‘Hindu Garjana’ organised in the temple town put the police on
tenterhooks for some time. Heavy police bandobust was seen at the TUDA
grounds where the meeting was held and also at the Islamic University at
Tondavada against which the Hindu outfits held the protest.
The
Tirumala Tirupati Pavitrata Samrakshana Vedika (TTPSV), which proposed
the meeting, was denied permission by the authorities concerned. With
this, Vedika leaders threatened to besiege the University, if they were
denied permission to hold the meeting at TUDA grounds.
However, as
tension started to build up, the authorities gave permission at the
last minute but did not take any chances and put tight security at the
university.
All the lanes leading to the Islamic University at
Tondavada, more than 10 kilometres from Tirupati, were barricaded and
policemen deployed there. They did not allow anyone to go near the
premises.
Policemen kept guard even in bushes and small bylanes that lead to the university premises to prevent anyone reaching there.
Armed police and special parties were also deployed aniticpating trouble.
At
TUDA grounds too, police and paramilitary forces were deployed around
the premises to prevent any attempt to take out a rally or the activists
to proceed towards the university.
Police heaved a sigh of relief after the meeting passed off peacefully and the activists left the place.
