Mohammed Siddique reports from Hyderabad: As many as four tear gas shells fell on the stage where many leaders of different organisations and parties were sitting during the Telangana march.  

 

As the eye-burning gas enveloped the area, two leaders including former Congress minister K Venkat Reddy fell sick.  

 

The tear gas shells were fired from behind the stage where two vehicles of Rapid Action Force were placed.   Later the police also pressed in to service the water canons to disperse the crowd which was already drenched due to the rains.
