AP endowment minister Manikyala Rao, who supported Ghazal Srinivas on yesterday, takes ‘U’ turn today and even apologized victim for supporting Ghazal Srinivas.
It is known news that Ghazal Srinivas was arrested 2 days back on allegations of sexual harassment as victim approached police with full video evidences. But yesterday minister supported Srinivas and doubted whether any conspiracy to malign Ghazal Srinivas reputation.
However, he told today that he watched the video evidences that victim gave to police and he was appalled by seeing them. He added, he had seen only one side of the coin but only after watching videos he understood the other side of Ghazal Srinivas. He told he feels ashamed of supportinf such person yesterday. He urged the government to take severe action on Srinivas.
It should be appreciated that minister showed no ego to take back his words and publicly aplogizing the victim for the stand he took yesterday. But at the sametime, people at higher positions always have to verify the facts first before giving public statements.
