MGM gate clash: two versions, one FIR
Mattewada police booked former BRS MLA Dasyam Vinay Bhaskar and other BRS workers after a confrontation outside Warangal’s MGM Hospital. His side says the police assaulted him first.
The case was registered while the sequence of events remained contested.
Mattewada police registered a case against former BRS MLA Dasyam Vinay Bhaskar and other BRS workers after a confrontation outside MGM Hospital in Warangal on September 22, 2026. The complaint was filed by SI B. Srinivas. The FIR itself was not available in the material reviewed, and reports differ on whether 15 or 16 people were booked.
According to the police complaint as reported, the group was stopped from entering near Gate No. 4 after the hospital requested security. Police allege obstruction, intimidation, minor injuries to personnel, and that Bhaskar assaulted SI Srinivas on the shoulder. They also allege that the group later held an unauthorised protest that affected traffic.
Bhaskar’s side says police pushed and assaulted him while he was trying to visit injured patients. He alleged blows to his abdomen and injuries to his hand and leg. BRS leaders, including K. T. Rama Rao and Harish Rao, called for an inquiry into the alleged police assault.
The available material does not establish who started the physical confrontation. CCTV footage, medical records and any counter-complaint would settle more than competing versions currently do. For now, the case is registered; the sequence remains contested. The FIR has arrived before the full record did.
