Pawan Kalyan Talks About Tuni Violence

The protests in Tuni took a dark turn as the protestors turned into a violent mob and set fire to a train, several vehicles and two police stations. The leaders of the protest stated that they will take back the protest. Actor Pawan Kalyan recently spoke about the disaster and stated that some anti-social elements were sure to be behind the violence.

He said, “When the incident took place, I was shooting in a Kerala forest. When I saw the images on TV upon returning, I was saddened. I sincerely believe that a movement has to be peaceful. Only then will it be a success. Let me quote an example from history. The Chauri Chaura incident that consumed several lives delayed our freedom by more than two decades”.

He added, “It was pre-meditated.  It is not easy to lit fire to several bogeys. I'm sure some anti-social elements are there behind it. 'Professionals' must have made it possible. But I don't want to name anyone without full knowledge. Surely, the vandals were not activists who were there to attend the meeting”.
