In a significant development, the andhra pradesh high court has granted interim relief to former chief minister and YSRCP chief jagan MOHAN REDDY' target='_blank' title='ys jagan mohan reddy-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>ys jagan mohan reddy in connection with the tragic death of a party supporter during a rally in Guntur. The incident, which occurred on june 18, involved the unfortunate death of 53-year-old C. Singayya, who was reportedly run over by a vehicle that was part of Jagan’s convoy. Following the incident, the police identified the car linked to the former cm, seized it, and registered an FIR, leading to widespread political attention and media coverage.

While hearing the plea, the high court observed that even with the best intentions and safety protocols in place, accidents are sometimes unavoidable. Drawing a parallel to the massive Kumbh Mela, where accidents have occurred despite extensive arrangements, the court acknowledged that such tragic incidents can happen in large public gatherings. This statement was seen as a contextual defense in granting temporary protection from coercive legal action to jagan Mohan Reddy. The court’s observation hinted at the complexities involved in assigning direct blame in scenarios where crowd dynamics and high vehicular movement are at play.

The interim relief does not mean the case is closed but offers a temporary reprieve for jagan as investigations continue. Politically, the incident has sparked debates, with critics questioning security lapses and the accountability of public leaders during high-profile events. Meanwhile, supporters of jagan have lauded the court’s balanced approach and pointed to the unpredictable nature of large-scale rallies. As the legal proceedings evolve, all eyes remain on the outcome of the investigation and whether further responsibilities will be attributed to the former chief minister or his convoy team.
