HYDERABAD: “Women in villages are wondering how one of their own could get involved in a liquor scam. The question on their minds is, ‘Is this the only business that Kavitha could get into’,” BJP leader and Huzurabad MLA Etala Rajendar said on Tuesday.
Answering questions from reporters in Parakal on the alleged involvement of BRS MLC K. Kavitha in the Delhi liquor scam, Rajendar said, “The feeling is that what Kavitha has done is ‘too bad’, and ‘is an insult for women’.”
Rajendar said if the probe by the Enforcement Directorate into the scam is a political vendetta as claimed by Kavitha and the BRS, then the courts will give the final verdict. “They should have nothing to fear if they are not involved and are innocent. Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao had repeatedly said that irrespective of whether it is his son, or daughter, if they commit mistakes and break the law, he will not spare them. What has become clear now is that the ruling family in Telangana is no longer satisfied with looting the state and has spread its tentacles to other states,” Rajendar said.
On Chandrashekar Rao’s letter to BRS workers and people to stand upto and fight BJP, Rajendar said people are no longer willing to the Chief Minister’s lies and asked “if the four crore people of Telangana gave any undertaking to Chandrashekar Rao that they will stand by his family if it gets into trouble.”
