Munugode MLA Komatireddy Raj Gopal Reddy has claimed that Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao was fretting over the former’s ‘courtesy’ meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah recently and was leaking reports of an impending bypoll to the media.
Speaking to reporters here, the Congress MLA said the Chief Minister was deliberately spreading false information about his resignation using his newspapers and TV channels. If there was a need to switch from his current party to defeat TRS, he would do so but only after consulting people of his constituency, he added.
He also claimed that all the newspapers were highlighting the meeting with Amit Shah as if he would resign soon and Munugode would see a bypoll. “The CM is desperate for a bypoll in Munugode to ensure a win at any cost to lift his sagging image among people,” he claimed.
