The actress and politician of YSRCP Roja, was taken into custody by the police on Saturday at the Gannavaram Airport. MLA Roja was arrested while she was on the way to attend World Women Parliamentarians Conference in Amaravathi.
The MLA was deported as she was about to board the flight. The reasons for her arrest are as of yet unknown. The police also said that she was arrested at the airport so as to avoid unwanted scenes at the World Women Parliamentarians conference. This step was taken after TDP women leaders allegedly complained that Roja was trying to use cheap politics at the event and will try to defame the AP government in the event by creating an agitation.
The intelligence agencies also alleged that Roja was planning to create a nuisance at the venue. Nara Brahmani, the daughter in law of AP CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Heritage Foods Director was scheduled to speak at this conference on the role of women in the corporate world.
The MLA was invited to the conference for her role as a woman representing the Nagiri constituency but as she was detained, the actress could not attend the event.
