TDP chief to hold round table meet on ryot issues in Delhi today
Express News Service
Hyderabad: Opposition leader N Chandrababu Naidu on Sunday demanded that the CBI should act independently.
Speaking to reporters in Delhi after meeting CPI general secretary AB Bardhan, Naidu said the CBI had become a tool in the hands of the ruling Congress.
The TDP chief went to Delhi to discuss ryot issues with national leaders. Naidu will hold a round-table conference on farmers’ issues on Monday.
After meeting Bardhan, Sharad Yadav of Janata Dal (United) and other national leaders, Naidu made it clear that he would not move the Supreme Court challenging the
Andhra Pradesh High Court’s direction to the CBI to conduct a probe into his assets.
“As many as 23 commissions of inquiry were ordered into my government’s decisions by
former chief minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy. But, he could not prove a single allegation against me,” Naidu said.
The TDP chief took documentary evidence along with him to tell the national leaders that all the allegations made by Rajasekhara Reddy in the past against him were false. The same issues were raised time and again by Congress leaders. He also said there were no new contents in the petition filed by YSR Congress honorary president YS Vijayamma in the High Court seeking a CBI probe against him.
Bardhan said the ruling Congress used the CBI as a tool to suppress its political opponents on several occasions earlier. Misusing the CBI is not new to the Congress, he added.
