Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) senior leader T Harish Rao and his team sat on a sit-in protest in Nagarkurnool after they were stopped by the Telangana police from visiting the Srisailam Left Bank Canal (SLBC) tunnel roof collapse accident site.
The BRS leader and his team were on their way to the district where the roof of the SLBC tunnel collapsed on February 22, trapping six workers, including two engineers.
The former minister criticised the Congress-led government over the lack of swift response and coordination with agencies deployed for the rescue operation following the tunnel roof collapse.
