Andhra Pradesh Minister G. Sandhyarani entered the disputed Kotia region and inaugurated a road connecting Neredivalasa to Tandigam. During a public meeting, she challenged the Odisha police and administration, directing Andhra police to retaliate if Odisha intervenes in their activities. She claimed equal rights over Kotia as the matter is sub-judice in the Supreme Court and threatened to jail locals if they opposed Andhra's projects. Despite her provocative statements and the presence of a heavy Andhra police force, Odisha administrative officials remained silent during the incident. https://sambad.in/state/andhra-ministers-grandfather-in-kotiya-12023948 #creator program
