Sangareddy MLA T. Jayaprakash Reddy has alleged ‘business deals’ in the selection of Rajya Sabha members by the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and feared the money ‘collected’ would be used in the next elections against the Congress.
At a press conference here, he asked the Chief Minister why not a single person who participated in the Telangana movement was given a Rajya Sabha nomination and why only businessmen were favoured. Telangana is being ruled for business and not for bettering people’s lives, he alleged.
Mr. Reddy said there were several allegations against Mr. Parthasarathy Reddy of Hetero Drugs and the raids by the Central agencies revealed the crores of cash hoarded by him during the peak of COVID. Moreover, there were allegations that he made huge money illegally supplying Remdesivir injections in the black market when people were dying unable to secure the medicine. “How can the CM nominate such a person,” he asked.
