In a huge relief to the dissident BRS MLAs ,the Telangana High Court has set aside an order of a single-judge bench which had directed the Speaker to announce within four weeks a schedule to decide on the disqualification petition against three MLAs who had joined the Congress.
However, the BRS soon released a hand-written letter from the arrested former MLA addressed to the court in which he said the remand report was cooked up by the police and denied that he had given any such confession.
A day after the attack on district officials including the collector in Vikarabad district of Telangana, police have taken into custody around 55 people while a BRS youth wing leader was on the run for allegedly instigating the “pre-planned attack”.
Criticising the Congress for taking a hypocritical stand over Adani Group BRS working president KT Rama Rao today alleged that the Rs 100 crore worth donation from industrialist Gautam Adani towards setting up a skill university in Telangana, was actually a pay-off ahead of the public hearing for the Ambuja Cement plant coming up at Nalgonda.
Rao posted a photograph of Gautam Adani’s recent meeting with Reddy when he donated Ra 100 crore to Young India Skills University through Adani Foundation. His son Karan Adani was also present on the occasion.
Reddy on Wednesday accompanied the Congress candidate for the Secunderabad seat when Danam Nagender submitted his nomination papers.
BRS leader Dasoju Srravan has even wondered if there was any nexus between the chief minister and the ECI.
He also said KCR should mind his own party MLAs as another BRS MLA met the chief minister with the intention of joining the Congress.
A day after BRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao claimed that 20 Congress MLAs were ready to quit the party and join him, his party MLA Prakash Goud from Rajendranagar met Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy.
BJP candidate for Chevalla, Konda Vishweshwar Reddy, cautioned that it would prove to be another engineering blunder like the Kaleshwaram project and accused the two parties of going only for “contractor-friendly” projects.
