There is a medical band-aid on the place of his injury. Reportedly, it will be there till the the cut fully heals.
Jagan has started his election campaign with same fervour. He will campaign in two key constituencies Gannavaram and Gudivada that have Vallabhaneni Vamsi and Kodali Nani as sitting MLAs.
However, after the incident, security has been beefed up. Senior DSPs, CIs, and trained police officers are deployed for his security fleet. Every zone that Jagan will go as part of his yatra will be first surveyed by the security and intelligence department.
