SC Welfare Minister Koppula Eshwar today said that Teenmar Mallanna was not a journalist or a reporter but just an anchor.
Eshwar said that Naveen alias Teenmar Mallanna had been indulging in a malicious campaign against the TRS government.
Eshwar claimed that Naveen was an RSS man who worked for the BJP and against the TRS government, and also that in the guise of a reporter, had resorted to looting and threatening some persons, for which he was sent to jail.
He had failed to change his attitude even after suffering for two months in jail, the minister said, and asked Naveen to change his attitude or face the ire of people of the state.
The minister also hit out at the union government led by the BJP for offering "atrocious and autocratic" rule.
The BJP leadership was killing SCs and people of many other sections with its dictatorial rule, Eshwar alleged.
