Naidu Assets Declaration A Red Herring: Congress
Congress leader KR Amos challenges the TDP president to allow a thorough investigation which would reveal the truth about the assets of Chandrababu Naidu.
Senior Congress leader, and MLC, KR Amos has ridiculed the declaration of assets by the Telugu Desam Party president N Chandrababu Naidu.
Talking to reporters at the Assembly premises here on Thursday, Amos derided Naidu's declaration of assets, proclaiming it to be a prelude to his proposed Padayatra. Deriding Naidu's move, Amos put it down to an attempt towards cleaning up his image before going amongst the people. He also alleged that Naidu has concealed the true extent of his assets.
Amos argued that if the TDP chief was really honest, then he would not have taken a stay from the High Court during the Anti-Corruption Bureau's investigation of his assets. He challenged Naidu to re-open the case, withdraw the stay, and allow a thorough investigation which would reveal the truth about the assets of Chandrababu Naidu.
The Congress leader also slammed Naidu for delaying the letter on the Telangana statehood issue. He contended that, by not honouring his words, Naidu has been putting the people of the region in a dilemma. He also asked the TDP leaders from the Telangana region to seek an explanation from Naidu for the delay in issuing the letter. (INN)
