This is the reason as to why Health Minister Sriramulu secretly met some inmates of Parappana Agrahara on Wednesday.

Speaking to reporters here on Thursday, he said the ministerial trio, Sriramulu, Janardhana Reddy and Karunakara Reddy will be held responsible for any untoward incident during the proposed padayatra.

JD(S) State President H D Kumaraswamy demanded that Sriramulu should clarify the reason for his secret visit to the jail.
