TDP will approach Andhra Pradesh High Court alleging electoral malpractices in the elections to the Legislative Council. TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu wrote two letters to the Election Commission outlining several instances where the ruling YSRCP had indulged in irregularities to win the elections. Opposition parties like BJP and Left parties too made similar allegations against the ruling party.
“The chief minister Mr YS Jagan Mohan Reddy reposed faith in the backdoor methods to win the polls and at least 30 per cent of the votes polled for both graduates and teachers constituencies are bogus,” said Varla Ramaiah, TDP politburo member.
