Visuals captured the man shouting slogans in support of Errabelli Dayakar Rao and threatening to jump off the tank, while police and relatives tried to calm him. Despite their efforts, Kumar persisted in his attempts to jump. However, he was later seen climbing back onto the platform of the water tank and engaging in a heated argument with those attempting to prevent him from causing harm to himself.

According to reports, Pappula Kumar from Inugurthi Mandal demanded the announcement of the Dalit Bandhu scheme for him, claiming that Errabelli Dayakar Rao had promised it in the past but he had not received it.
