Actor and Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan has issued a stern warning to the authorities. In view of the silent protest tomorrow at Vizag's RK Beach where citizens, especially students, will congregate to raise a peaceful demand for Special Category Status for Andhra Pradesh, Pawan has said that the same shouldn't be disallowed by the authorities.

'If Central Govt &State Govt stops the peaceful protest tomorrow, be prepared for a long drawn"Battle of Andhras" for their rights," he has said. "Jana Sena knows when to cooperate and when to confront with the govt in the interest of the people," he has said in another statement.

Earlier in the day, Powerstar found fault with the way the erstwhile AP was bifurcated hurriedly. He has come out strongly against those trying to "water down" the movement.
