Leaders of Telugu Nadu Students Federation (TNSF), the youth wing of TDP on Sunday vandalised YSRCP's party office here after their district president Tirumala Naidu was allegedly attacked with iron rods.

TNSF leaders and workers went to YSRCP's Nellore rural party office and staged a protest. They also tore down the YSRCP party boards and flexies of party chief Jaganmohan Reddy.

TNSF alleged that YSRCP MLA Sridhar Reddy is responsible for the attack on Naidu.

Later, the police reached the spot and detained TNSF leaders.

Naidu is currently in the hospital and is undergoing treatment after suffering "critical injuries" on his head and hand.

Earlier on April 11 polling in Andhra Pradesh was marred with violence, as multiple clashes broke out between workers of Telugu Desam Party and YSRCP across the state.

Polling was held on Thursday for 25 Lok Sabha and 175 Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh.
