**Kavitha Accuses Santosh Kumar of Rampant Corruption and Sabotage Within BRS**
**Hyderabad, Telangana – September 3, 2025** – In a stunning press conference, BRS leader Kalvakuntla Kavitha unleashed a barrage of accusations against fellow party member Joginapally Santosh Kumar, alleging widespread corruption, betrayal, and ultimately, the sabotage of the BRS’s electoral prospects.
Kavitha, daughter of former Chief Minister KCR, didn’t hold back, accusing Santosh Kumar, a BRS state secretary, former MP, and KCR’s nephew, of “uncontrollable greed” and orchestrating harmful events within the party. “Santosh Rao’s thirst for wealth knows no bounds. He is the one who was used to test the waters on multiple occasions,” she stated forcefully.
She specifically accused Santosh Kumar of being responsible for the torture of Dalits in the Siricilla sand lorry case, deliberately framing KTR in the process. Kavitha also implicated MLA Pochampalli Srinivas Reddy, Palla Rajeshwar Reddy and Naveen Rao in wrongdoings linked to Santosh Kumar’s alleged corruption.
The accusations went further, with Kavitha alleging that Santosh Kumar, along with Harish Rao, actively worked to undermine the BRS during the recent elections. “Harish Rao and Santosh Rao maintained separate factions, colluding with Congress and BJP to ensure BRS’s defeat,” Kavitha claimed. “They even orchestrated KCR’s loss in Kamareddy.” She also called out Ram Anna for managing YouTube channels and warned him to learn from Harish Rao.
Kavitha concluded her explosive address with a direct warning to KCR, referring to Harish Rao and Santosh Rao as “wolves in sheep’s clothing.” “As your daughter, I’m telling you, if you keep them in the party, they will swallow you whole.”
The allegations have sent shockwaves through the BRS, raising serious questions about the party’s internal dynamics and future leadership. Santosh Kumar and Harish Rao are yet to respond to the accusations. The fallout from this press conference is likely to have significant repercussions for the BRS in the coming days.
