Telangana's ex-DGP's sensational allegations on KCR:- In the ongoing phone-tapping case, former DCP P. Radha Kishan Rao has confessed that K. Chandrashekar Rao, the ex-chief minister, played a personal role in planning and overseeing the Moinabad farmhouse MLA poaching incident. The confession also states that Chandrashekar Rao wanted to use this case as leverage with the BJP to ensure that his daughter, MLC K. Kavitha, was removed from the Delhi liquor scam case. Radha Kishan Rao claimed that Chandrashekar Rao instructed the State Intelligence Bureau to conduct surveillance based on a tip-off from Pilot Rohith Reddy, who claimed that senior BJP leaders had approached him with an offer to join their party. Chandrashekar Rao allegedly hoped to use the poaching case to pressure the BJP into making a compromise. To strengthen the case, he even wanted to have BJP national leader B.L. Santosh arrested.
According to Radha Kishan Rao, the Moinabad farm house plan was executed successfully, resulting in the arrest of a local BJP leader and two "swamijis". A special investigation team was formed by the government, but due to the inefficiency of some Cyberabad police officials, an important person was able to escape the police in Kerala. Despite a special team led by superintendent of police Rema Rajeshwari being flown to Kerala on a chartered aircraft, the arrest could not be made, resulting in KCR's anger for not meeting his expectations. In his confession statement, Rao also revealed that while working in the city task force, he attended to important confidential work of CM KCR, his family members, and close associates of the party. These works included settling civil disputes, suppressing dissent or protest against the TRS party and its government, and arm-twisting certain individuals causing trouble for the party and CM KCR.
Former Deputy Superintendent of Police N. Bhujanga Rao has made a confession statement that implicates former minister T. Harish Rao, who is the nephew of Chandrashekar Rao, with another accused named A. Sravan Kumar Rao. Bhujanga Rao claims that during October and November of 2023, Sravan Kumar of INews was in direct communication with Prabhakar Rao, the former intelligence chief and leader of the tapping operation, at the request of T. Harish Rao, who was serving as a minister at the time. Bhojanga Rao said prominent people under surveillance included MLC Shambipur Raju (known for his proximity to current BRS president K.T. Rama Rao) and former minister T. Rajaiah. This list includes Kadiam Srihari from Warangal. Patnam Mahender Reddy and his wife from Tandur, MLA Rohith Reddy, former IPS officer R.S. ABN's Praveen Kumar, media personalities Narendra Chaudhary and V Radhakrishna were unhappy. The scrutiny also covered several opposition candidates, including K. Raghuveer Reddy, son of K. Jana Reddy from Nagarjunasagar. Sarita Tirupasia by Gadwal. Javadi Narsiga Rao of Koltola and Vamsi Krishna of Achampet.
