Senior Telugu Desam Party leader E Peddireddy on Friday stated that his party would file a defamation case against Pulivendula MLA Y S Vijayamma for tarnishing the image of party president N Chandrababu Naidu by filing a High Court petition alleging that he had amassed illegal wealth during his regime as CM.
Talking to media persons at NTR Trust Bhavan, Peddireddy said that the party would thoroughly go through the material and evidences submitted by Vijayamma, and consult legal experts before filing the defamation petition.
"The defamation case will be filed against Vijayamma at an appropriate time, based on the outcome of discussions within the party," he said.
Stating that the charges levelled by Vijayamma were baseless, he said that allegations were aimed at distorting Naidu's image. He stated that there are more benamis in the Congress party than the TDP. (INN)
