Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC Padi Kaushik Reddy has termed accusations levelled against him by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Eatala Rajender and his wife E. Jamuna as lies.
Addressing a press conference here on Tuesday, he said the martyrs memorial in the middle of a road at Huzurabad was removed as part of the road widening after the Municipal Council had adopted a resolution and he had nothing to do with it. The resolution was also sent to Mr. Rajender and he too had approved it.
Further, he explained that there was no name plaque on the old martyrs memorial and the question of Mr. Rajender’s name inscribed on it would not arise at all. He alleged that Mr. Rajender was unable to digest the fact that the new and better martyrs memorial was unveiled recently by him but the plaque had the name of Mr. Rajender too along with others.
