Is Telugu Desam Party president and AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu under pressure to disown Telangana TDP legislator A Revanth Reddy in connection with the cash-for-vote scam?
The answer appears to be yes, going by the statements of some TDP leaders from Andhra Pradesh. Apparently, these TDP leaders are bringing pressure on Naidu to get himself out of the Revanth Reddy episode and focus more on Telangana government witch-hunting AP government by resorting to phone tappings. If he starts defending Revanth, Naidu would be landing in more and more trouble, they argued.
AP Minister K Acchen Naidu, speaking to the media on Wednesday, said that the party had nothing to do with Revanth Reddy episode.
“The arrest of Revanth Reddy is a different issue. We have no relation with this,” he said.
He said Revanth would be punished if he was guilty, or he would come out unscathed if he was innocent.
“The matter is in the Court and hence it could not be discussed further,” he added.
Perhaps, that was the reason why Chandrababu Naidu has not uttered a word either in favour of or against Revanth Reddy.
He did not even make a statement on the entire cash-for-note scam. Instead, he talked only about phone tapping and insecurity to Andhra people in Hyderabad.
