Veteran Congress leader Marri Shashidhar Reddy today made sensational comments against his own party.
Speaking to media persons, he said that he was vexed with the attitude of the TPCC, and that he was completely believing the claims of the party MP Komatireddy Venkat Reddy that the TPCC had been bought by some leaders of the party.
He asked the party leadership if they were indeed being seen as the home guards of the party (Revanth Reddy had controversially said a few days back that his rising to the top so quickly should be seen as the difference between home guards and IPS officers).
He said that the comments of the former leaders of the party like Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy and Dasoju Sravan about the party were completely true. He alleged that three leaders of the party had conspired to destroy the party in Telangana, and that the same three leaders were sending false reports to the party high command about its activities in the State.
Targeting TPCC president A Revanth Reddy, he alleged that the latter was solely responsible for the infighting in the party. He also alleged that state party incharge and MP Manickam Tagore was working as an agent of Revanth Reddy.
He further alleged that the national general secretary of the party K C Venugopal was also misleading the party high command.
He asked the party high command why it did not control Revanth Reddy when the latter asked the senior party leaders from the State to either stay in the party following his directions or leave it.
Referring to the insult to the party MP Komatireddy Venkat Reddy in the Chandur meeting, he wondered how the senior leaders of the party like Uttam Kumar reddy and Jana Reddy allowed some party leaders to insult Venkat Reddy in their presence.
He said that he had never seen such a situation in the party's State unit in his 40-year-long political career.
