Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K Taraka Rama Rao (KTR) Monday said he received a notice from the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) to appear for an enquiry on May 28 in connection with the Formula E case.
In a post on X, KTR called the case “pure political harassment” and said he would cooperate with the agencies.
“As a law-abiding citizen, (I) will definitely cooperate with the agencies .. . Will appear in front of them the moment I come back,” he said, adding that he had already informed ACB officials in writing about his prior travel plans to the UK and USA for “multiple events.”
Taking a swipe at Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, KTR accused him of indulging in “cheap vendetta politics.”
He alleged that while Revanth’s name appeared in the ED chargesheet in the National Herald case just 48 hours ago, he was seen “schmoozing with BJP top brass including PM Modi” the very next day.
“Not a word against Revanth Reddy from even a single BJP leader for his involvement in the money laundering case,” KTR said.
He claimed the ACB notice issued to him today was part of a political strategy. “Well! He may fail as an administrator, leader and even as a human being. But he is proving himself at cheap vendetta politics,” KTR wrote, adding that the BRS continues to “scare” Revanth Reddy.
