Search Pragati Bhavan for proof in liquor scam: Revanth

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy has demanded that the BJP Government at the Centre order searches at Pragati Bhavan by the Central Bureau of Investigation, Enforcement Directorate and Income Tax to gather proofs in the alleged liquor scam that broke out in New Delhi.

“For every thing — from liquor scam to buying of MLAs, MLCs and MPs from other parties, regularising lands for them, offering them contracts — the root is Pragati Bhavan. You will get tonnes of documents if you conduct a raid on Pragati Bhavan,” said Mr. Revanth Reddy while speaking to reporters at Gandhi Bhavan on Tuesday, adding that the party would not trust the BJP unless Central agencies raided Pragati Bhavan.

He demanded an inquiry into contacts of public representatives who had shifted loyalty to the TRS and regularisation of the lands given to them. He said that 34 MLAs, MPs and MLC from Congress, TDP, BSP and YSRCP had shifted loyalty in the past eight years.
