WARANGAL: Police have registered a forgery case against two persons for forging the signature of the Panchayat Raj minister Errabelli Dayakar Rao and for creating a fake letterhead on his name at Banjara Hills police station in Hyderabad.

The OSD (Officer on Special Duty) of the minister S.M.Rajeshwar Rao alleged that some persons by forging minister's signature on the fake letterhead sent a letter to the Sangareddy collectorate recommending the concerned officials for sanctioning double bedroom houses.

Since the officials did not receive any kind of letters from the minister in the past, they were surprised and checked with the minister's office at Hyderabad and learnt that the letter was fake and signature was forged, he added.

On receiving the complaint from the OSD, the police officials registered the case and started an investigation and nabbed two persons who were identified as Gouse Pasha and Gunti Shekar residents of Narregudem village of Aminepura mandal of Sangareddy district.
