Some back-story:
Today the common Governor of AP and TS, ESL Narsimhan aka "Doberman" (former IB chief and die-hard national-security buff) called both chief ministers and reportedly shouted on them in a filmy style.
- The Krishna River forms the de-facto state-boundary between Andhra and Telangana to the south-east (of Telangana) and north-west (of Andhra).
- The Nagarjuna Sagar Dam, built over this river, is a national project, but on paper it's split between the two states, and who gets to control the dam's various canals hasn't been decided.
- On 12th, both AP and TS governments issued orders to the engineers manning the dam. AP ordered them to release water to downstream canals leading to Andhra; while TS ordered them not to release any water.
- With its orders not being followed, AP government ordered AP Police to go to the dam in force, and make the engineers release the water.
- Within no time, TS government dispatched TS Police to go to the dam in force, and force the engineers to close the gates
- Then this happened:
- Not just constables with sticks, but also low-level inspectors traded blows, insults to each others' mothers, yada nada.
- There was no firearm discharge.
