Telangana BJP continued to focus on the controversial phone-tapping by the erstwhile BRS government and called upon the Election Commission (EC) and other statutory bodies to take suo motu note of the ongoing investigations and take appropriate action against the perpetrators responsible for the offence.
Party president and Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy demanded stringent action against former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for “orchestrating snooping on his political opponents, businesspersons and others, thereby intruding into the individual privacy, and violating law and all established norms”.
“This evidence is sufficient to take tough action against KCR and his family, including his son K.T. Rama Rao, as they have been directly involved. It has impeded upon the issues of national security and integrity. The EC should even re-consider about the BRS recognition as a political party,” he told a press conference at the State BJP office on Thursday.
