TRS Secretary-General and Rajya Sabha member K Keshava Rao today condemned the allegations that he had lands in the Shamshabad area.
Stating that he did not have even a cent of land at Shamshabad, Rao said that he had bought lands only in Ibrahimpatnam, and that when he was a Congress MP.
"It is true that I bought land in Ibrahimpatnam (near Dandu Mylaram). I did that during the Congress regime, and it has no relation with the TRS. Following court orders, I bought lands in Right Royal way back in 2013 and not after the TRS came to power in the state," Rao said.
Rao refuted allegations that he had got land using influence in Shamshabad. "There isn't an iota of truth in that allegation. Just because there is a photo of my daughter and me standing at Shamshabad, some rivals are spreading rumours that we own land in that area," he said.
The MP said that he was ready for any sort of inquiry into the issue.
