Hyderabad: Former TGPSC member and BRS leader Sumithranand addressed a press conference at Telangana Bhavan, where she raised a series of allegations against Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and the Congress government.
Speaking at the press meet, Sumithranand questioned whether police cases and alleged harassment were being used against those who raise questions about alleged corruption involving the Chief Minister’s family.
Questions Over Krishank’s Arrest ,Sumithranand alleged that Dalit leader Krishank was arrested by the police without proper justification. She said the court’s reported refusal to grant his remand should be viewed as a setback for the state government.
She questioned why Revanth Reddy was not responding to questions raised by the BRS and demanded greater clarity on the allegations being made by the opposition.
Counter-Attack on Congress Leaders
Responding to remarks by MLC Balmoor Venkat concerning alleged social-media posts targeting women members of Revanth Reddy’s family, Sumithranand questioned whether Revanth Reddy had not previously made political remarks concerning members of K.T. Rama Rao’s family.
She also questioned Venkat’s criticism of KTR and said that if there were issues to be raised, they should be addressed directly to the concerned political leaders.
BRS Says Telangana Interests Are Its Priority
Sumithranand said the BRS would continue to raise issues concerning the people of Telangana and accused Congress leaders of making personal and political allegations instead of focusing on governance.
She demanded that Revanth Reddy publicly clarify allegations surrounding his daughter Nainisha Reddy’s educational institutions, stating that the Chief Minister should explain what is true and what is not.
BRS Warns Against Political Pressure, The BRS leader said her party would not accept what she described as threats or warnings from Congress leaders. She alleged that the Congress government was concentrating more on political divisions and “share-based politics” rather than governance and public welfare. She reiterated that the BRS would act as a watchdog for the people of Telangana and said the party would continue to raise issues concerning the state. Social Media Remarks
On social-media controversies, Sumithranand said social-media platforms are open to everyone and maintained that the BRS cannot be held responsible for every comment posted by individuals.
She also called for scrutiny of previous statements allegedly made by Revanth Reddy and said the police should examine such matters equally.
The press conference was attended by BRS women leaders Mamata, Annapurnamma and Shakeela Reddy.
