Wed Jan 08 00:20:00 UTC 2025: ## KTR Moves to Supreme Court After High Court Rejects Quash Petition
**Hyderabad, Jan 8, 2025** – Telangana’s Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president, K.T. Rama Rao (KTR), has announced he will appeal to the Supreme Court after the Telangana High Court dismissed his petition to quash an Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) case against him. The ACB case alleges irregularities, linked to the Formula E race held in Hyderabad.
KTR stated that he will utilize all constitutional and legal avenues to fight the “false” cases filed against him, describing the High Court’s decision as akin to a death sentence in the eyes of Congress leaders. He further challenged Telangana Congress president Revanth Reddy to a public debate on the Formula E controversy at Reddy’s Jubilee Hills residence.
KTR has also sought permission from the High Court to be accompanied by his lawyers during the ACB inquiry scheduled for January 9th. He confirmed he would attend the Enforcement Directorate (ED) inquiry on January 16th if he receives relief from the High Court.
Addressing the media, KTR vehemently denied any wrongdoing, asserting his innocence and accusing the Congress of political vendetta. He highlighted perceived inconsistencies in the ACB’s investigation and criticized media leaks regarding the case. He also raised concerns about alleged corruption within the state government, specifically mentioning Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy and his connection to the Megha Engineering and Infrastructures Limited.
KTR’s residence was visited by several senior BRS leaders, including former ministers, MLAs, and MLCs following the High Court’s decision. He held discussions with his legal team, strategizing his next steps in the Supreme Court. KTR expressed unwavering faith in the justice system and his determination to fight for the truth. He further took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his resolve, stating that this setback would only make him stronger.
