Hyderabad: BRS leader RS Praveen Kumar has accused the police of being involved in conspiracies led by Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy. He made these allegations during a press conference on Wednesday, where he was joined by other party leaders, including Palle Ravi and G Srinivas.
Praveen Kumar condemned the attack on the convoy of BRS working president KT Rama Rao (KTR), which took place on Tuesday. He stated that the attack was led by the Youth Congress president, who even admitted to stopping KTR’s convoy on social media. Praveen Kumar questioned the police’s actions, asking why they had not arrested those responsible for blocking the convoy, even 26 hours after the incident.
He also mentioned that some Congress leaders had come to Telangana Bhavan and attempted to burn an effigy, but instead of taking action against them, the police booked cases against BRS activists. He criticized the police for not filing any cases against those who attacked the office.
Praveen Kumar reminded everyone that during the Telangana movement, BRS leaders never attacked other party offices. He also referred to a previous attack on Harish Rao’s camp office in Siddipet, where MLA Arikepudi Gandhi reportedly led an attack on the house of Padi Kaushik Reddy.
He further alleged that BRS leaders are being targeted because they are standing in the way of a Rs 1.5 lakh-crore scam related to the beautification of the Musi River. Praveen Kumar also accused Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of being an agent of the World Bank.
