IPS officer-turned-politician RS Praveen Kumar who took voluntary retirement to enter politics had joined the Bahujan Samaj Party that has the similar goal of fighting for the bahujans. Currently, RS Praveen Kumar is serving as the Coordinator of BSP for Telangana state. He joined the party earlier in August amid much fanfare.
RS Praveen Kumar is in news for the reason of his sensational comments on Paritala Ravi’s murder case. In Open Heart With RK’s latest episode, he was the guest and he was asked a question on allegations on his alleged links in Paritala Ravi’s murder case.
Reacting to the allegations, RS Praveen Kumar said all the allegations are baseless. He said, as an SP he did his job without and informed Paritala Ravi about the attack. I have written a letter to the government too. It is the government that has to take a call on this, he said.
I got to hear that a conspiracy is being hatched in a prison against Paritala Ravi. He(Paritala Ravi) himself had told about the conspiracy. I have written to the government on this. I am a district MP. The Ministers and Chief Ministers have to take a call on this. I don’t know what happened in the jail. As an SP I can only investigate the case. CBI investigated the case and only talented IPS officers are taken into the agency, he said.
I cannot answer why the government did not act on this. The then ruling government has to answer this. District SP will be left in the last. They are mere allegations. Praveen Kumar is not a person who takes a life or causes trouble to others, he added.
Paritala Ravindra, a strong leader in the Anantapur region was killed in 2005 at the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) office. He died on the spot after he was shot in the attack. Paritala’s death caused a big loss for TDP and slowly the grand-old party started to lose control of the Anantapur region.
As RS Praveen Kumar happens to be Anantapur district SP at the time of Paritala Ravi’s murder, he is accused of having a link in the case. Now he gave a clarification saying that he has no role to play in the case.
