As soon as he completed his nomination process and stepped out, the local police took him into custody. This sudden action shocked many present at the scene, creating a bit of chaos outside the Collectorate.
After being detained, Satyadev Ram expressed that he was unaware of the warrant and was simply following the election guidelines. He mentioned that he was informed about the case related to an old railway movement only after he was arrested.
