Ravi, Dayanand Reddy, is the son of a late police officer and begins his career as a constable at the Kota Bommali police station. He quickly befriends Head Constable Rama Krishna, Murali Sharma, who was a colleague of Ravi's father. Together, with other police officers, they are assigned to provide security for a crucial upcoming by-election in Tekkali. This election is highly significant for the ruling party, as winning it could boost their reputation and influence the upcoming statewide elections.
The story takes a tense turn when a local political goon named Munna, linked to a newly recruited constable named Kumari, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, harasses her one night. Ravi and Rama Krishna get into a physical confrontation with Munna and his gang, ultimately locking Munna up in a jail cell. However, due to his affiliation with the ruling party, Munna is released later without any charges being pressed. Following a wedding celebration, Rama Krishna, Ravi, and Kumari—who has accepted a ride from them—are intoxicated. On their way home, they are involved in an accident with a motorbike, which they later learn is being driven by Raja Rao, a close friend of Munna and part of a dominant low-caste group in the area.
Rahul, Rama Krishna's nephew, Rahul Vijay, drives the trio and immediately flees the scene after the collision, fearing repercussions. The group tries to help the injured rider, only to discover that Raja Rao has died from the accident. This accident sparks outrage among Munna's gang, prompting the police to quickly become involved. The police station soon faces the reality that Ravi, Rama Krishna, and Kumari might be accused of murder, leading them to flee and go into hiding, realizing that their arrest is imminent.
The Chief Minister, understanding the political importance of the case—especially with the upcoming by-election and the support of Dalit communities—gets involved. The state home minister, Barisela Jayaraj, Vishnu Oi, tasked with ensuring victory in the elections, promises to ensure justice and assigns a police squad led by SP Razia Ali, Srikanth. As political pressure mounts, the police resort to manipulative tactics, staging a fake arrest with dummies and fake faces for the media, to portray the trio as criminals.
During this turbulent period, Rama Krishna reveals to Ravi and Kumari that he was coerced into killing a Dalit youth earlier due to higher officials' pressure, and he regrets his actions deeply. This confession sparks a surge of emotional turmoil within him. The trio’s situation worsens when, just before a planned police raid, Ravi and Kumari find Rama Krishna hanging from a tree, accompanied by a suicide video on his phone, which serves as his dying declaration. The police then stage Rama Krishna’s death as a suicide and attempt to silence Ravi and Kumari, forcing them to give false statements that falsely implicate Rama Krishna in the killing of the Dalit youth.
Refusing to accept the false narrative, Ravi and Kumari insist that Rama Krishna’s family deserves to know the truth. They are detained and transported to court amid the intense political climate surrounding the by-elections. In court, a fellow officer, who also received the suicide video, submits it as evidence. The video clearly shows Rama Krishna explaining the full sequence of events, asserting that his death was accidental and requesting a proper investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The judge orders Ravi and Kumari’s release and calls for the CBI to examine the case thoroughly. Meanwhile, the court determines that SP Razia Ali had tried to manipulate evidence, and she is suspended pending an inquiry.
As the film approaches its climax, Rama Krishna's colleague reveals suspicions that Ali might secretly have deleted or tampered with evidence by destroying phones, increasing the tension. In a final message sent to his daughter, Rama Krishna apologizes for his past actions, claiming his suicide was an act to protect justice. The story concludes with the ruling politician, Jayaraj, Rama Rao Jadhav, asserting that sometimes collateral damage is necessary to maintain power, and he warns Ali that with her influence in Parliament, he can pressure the authorities to dismiss the case. The film ends on a somber note, emphasizing the complexities and corruptions within the pursuit of political and justice systems.
