Legal notice served on CM for linking Purandeswari with Vizag drug case, says BJP leader

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Minority Morcha State president Sheik Baji has alleged that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has violated the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) while addressing election meetings.

“A legal notice has been served on Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy for dragging the names of BJP State president Daggubati Purandeswari and her family members into the drug bust case reported from Visakhapatnam,” Mr. Baji told the media on April 2 (Tuesday).

Mr. Baji alleged that Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy had been accusing the BJP leaders during his public meetings. “The issue has been brought to the notice of Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Mukesh Kumar Meena. The Chief Minister, in a public meeting on March 27, made a statement referring to the consignment caught with drug in Visakhapatnam,” he said.
