A man leaves a petrol pump in Vijayawada after noticing that it has been sealed by the Election Commission for a violation of conduct. Though the exact nature of the violation is unclear, it seems the pump was sealed by the police and a joint collector on the night of 3 April, after it had filled the tanks of several motorcycles in a Telugu Desam Party procession for the municipal elections earlier that day. Employees there say they had no indication or warning that this was not permitted. The pump was one of three to be sealed in the area
