Telangana CM Revanth Reddy dares KTR to proceed legally on Amrut tenders

PTI Hyderabad, Refuting the allegations levelled against him by BRS working president K T Rama Rao over Amrut scheme tenders, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Tuesday dared the former to proceed legally on the matter. Talking to reporters in Delhi, Reddy said Rama Rao is trying to make a counter-attack, without responding to the investigation into allegations of corruption during the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) regime in the southern state. “Investigation began into his corruption when he (Rama Rao) was in power.

He wants to launch a counter-attack, without replying to that probe,” the Congress leader said. Rama Rao is “making rounds of Delhi” as part of efforts to protect himself in case the governor gives permission to the state government to register an FIR against him, Reddy claimed. The BRS leader is making allegations against him to avoid a debate on his family’s “loot”, he added. “If there is anything in the tenders, let him fight legally. Who is stopping him?” the chief minister asked. The BRS and Rama Rao had earlier called the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) corrupt and vowed to “finish” it in Telangana, but the BRS working president is now submitting letters to the ministers of the saffron party, he said. The clandestine understanding between the BRS and the BJP is now coming out in the open.
