YS Sharmila had joined a protest rally being staged by her party, YSR Telangana, against the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS). The rally was headed to Pragati Bhavan, Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao’s official residence.
Soon after she started in her car, police brought in a crane that dragged around the vehicle through the city’s roads.
A day earlier, she had been briefly detained following a clash between her supporters and workers of the ruling TRS in Warangal.
