BJP files police complaint against Telangana CM Revanth Reddy

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday filed a police complaint at the Kothagudem Police Station (Bhadradri Kothagudem district) against Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy for his alleged “false, defamatory and provocative speech” claiming that the BJP government would abolish reservations as soon as it forms government” at the Centre.

In the complaint, party general secretary B. Premender Reddy charged that a “fake and morphed video of Home Minister Amit Shah claiming to abolish reservations was created and made viral on social media and even through Congress official handles as part of the same conspiracy”.

He noted that FIRs have been lodged in various police stations across the country and an investigation is in progress. Mr. Revanth Reddy was also arraigned as an accused and has also been served notices recently, requiring his appearance before Delhi Police.
