Ongole, May 18: A woman worker of the Congress has climbed a mobile tower in the district Collectorate and created tension for over two hours on Friday morning.

Police turned jittery when she refused to come down until they promised action against the ruling party’s MLA.

Venkayamma said she has been serving the Congress party for the past 30 years and alleged that Congress MLA Amanchi Krishna Mohan beat her and demanded action against him. She said that she went to the Ongole MP’s office to meet the Chief Minister when he came here recently and Amanchi had not permitted her to meet Kiran Kumar Reddy. She said when she insisted, Amanchi thrashed her.She said that though she has complained to the police three days ago, they had not taken any action.

When police came to the cell tower and assured her action, she has come down. Venkayamma has also demanded CBI probe into Amanchi’s involvement in the Vanpic project.
