Cong challenges KTR to proceed with defamation lawsuits over phone tapping

Congress in Hyderabad stated that it will not give in to pressure from BRS leaders, including KTR, who threatened to sue party leaders over a ‘phone-tapping’ issue. A complaint was filed at the Hyderabad Police Commissionerate against the previous government and its leaders by K K Mahender Reddy, a Congress candidate from Sircilla in the Assembly polls.

Reddy challenged KTR to send legal notices during a press conference at Gandhi Bhavan. He criticized KTR’s threat to sue Congress leaders, including Minister Konda Surekha, for allegedly defaming him in a phone-tapping case. Reddy accused the previous BRS government of committing a serious offense and criticized KCR’s family for undermining democracy and human rights while in power.
