**Hyderabad, [Date]:** Telangana Minister KTR (Kalvakuntla Taraka Rama Rao), the working president of the ruling BRS party, has sent a legal notice to fellow party member and Telangana Minister Konda Surekha. The notice follows a series of alleged defamatory remarks made by Surekha about KTR, including false allegations of phone tapping and his involvement in the divorce of actors Naga Chaitanya and Samantha.
KTR strongly condemned Surekha’s comments, stating that they were intended to damage his reputation and were politically motivated. He refuted the phone tapping allegations, stating they were completely baseless and had no connection to him.
The legal notice accuses Surekha of spreading false information and using her position as a Minister to make these unsubstantiated claims. KTR expressed concern that the public might perceive these false allegations as truth, given her status as a Minister. He criticized Surekha’s conduct as a “blatant disregard for her position and the respect due to fellow Assembly members.”
KTR highlighted that this was not the first instance of Surekha making such slanderous statements. He reminded the public that she was issued a notice back in April for similar remarks. Despite receiving a warning from the Election Commission, KTR alleges that she continues to spread false and damaging information about him.
KTR demanded a public apology from Surekha for her defamatory remarks within 24 hours. He also threatened to file a criminal defamation lawsuit if she failed to comply.
The legal notice highlights a growing rift within the BRS party, with the public now eagerly awaiting Surekha’s response and the potential legal proceedings to follow.
