Hyderabad: RS Praveen Kumar, a leader of the BRS, has reportedly changed his stance on the phone tapping claims he previously made against his own party.
While he was part of the BSP, Kumar accused the BRS government of tapping his phone. He filed a complaint at the Panjagutta Police Station, leading to an FIR. The SIT took his statement regarding the complaint. Kumar explained he had filed the complaint after receiving a warning message on his Apple phone. At that time, he made serious accusations against the BRS and KCR.
Now, Kumar has reportedly stated that the BRS did not politically misuse phone tapping.
Instead, he accused Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy of listening in on ministers’ calls. He also claimed that private individuals were being spied on using dark web tools. Kumar criticized the Congress for allegedly using the SIT to manipulate the phone tapping issue.
