A Telugu Desam Party (TDP) MLA in Andhra Pradesh sparked a row on Wednesday by threatening journalists publishing ‘false news’ against him and his family members.
Gummanur Jayaram, the MLA from Guntakal constituency, warned journalists that if they publish ‘false news’ against him or his brother, he would make them sleep on train tracks.
