WARANGAL: State Congress party chief A Revanth Reddy asked Chief Minister KCR on Friday as to why he was not suspending K Kavitha MLC from the party following the eruption of the Delhi Liquor Scam and allegations of corruption against her.
Speaking to the media in Jagtial district on Friday, the TPCC chief noted that the CM had sacked former deputy chief minister Rajaiah when corruption charges were leveled against him.
However, the Congress leader said central agencies like the Income Tax (IT), the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate are acting on the directions of the BJP. “ED harassed Congress leader Sonia Gandhi in the National Herald case, but why is it not acting in such a tough manner with MLC Kavitha and not giving the complete details of the Delhi Liquor Scam? Why are the central agencies having a soft corner with Kavitha,” he wondered.
“I had lodged a complaint with the investigation agencies regarding corruption by KCR. Why are they not carrying out an investigation on this,” he asked.
He said Union minister Kishan Reddy and BJP state chief Bandi Sanjay were paper tigers and can only roar in front of TV cameras. “Why are they silent and not talking about KCR’s corruption? Why are they not exerting pressure on the BJP government to take action against the CM?”
He asked whether Bandi Sanjay has guts to contest polls from Karimnagar assembly segment against Gangula Kamalakar. “The people are very well aware of what is going on and are watching the developments about how ED and CBI are working in the country and what is the secret understanding between the BJP and the BRS,” he stated.
