Telugu Desam Party president and AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu got himself thoroughly exposed before the national media which had interviewed him on the latest confrontation with the Telangana government.
Naidu used harsh words and spoke aggressively against TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao in his interview to the national television channels in New Delhi on Wednesday; but he clearly fumbled while answering queries on the audio-tape containing his conversation with nominated MLA in the cash-for-vote case.
When specifically asked whether he had spoken to the nominated MLA, Naidu tried to beat around the bush saying where the need was for him to do so.
“One MLC post does not make any difference to me. But the TRS government is trying to defame me,” he said. In the same breath, he accused KCR of resorting to telephone tapping in the episode.
Interestingly, Naidu could not confirm whether he had any evidence of his phone being tapped by the TRS government.
“Official tapping is one thing. But KCR did was to tap my phones and that of my colleagues 120 times using private equipment,” he alleged, but said he had only information to this effect and not evidence.
The talk in the national media is that Naidu had made a mess of the whole episode and is now trying to wriggle out of the case by influencing the Centre.
At the same time, he is trying to divert the attention of the people from the case by talking about powers to Governor.
