Chandrababu Naidu criticizes Governor!

For the first time, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu criticized Governor Narasimhan today for allowing the Telangana Chief Minister KCR to induct TDP MLA Talasani Srinivas Yadav into his cabinet as a minister. Speaking to the media at New Delhi, he said “How the Governor can allow the Telangana Chief Minister KCR to admit our party MLA Talasani Srinivas Yadav as a minister in his cabinet and how did he administered his oath? Why he did not responds to our party appeals for taking action against the defector MLAs in the TRS government. We have brought several issues to his notice, but there was no response from him till now.” Chandrababu Naidu responding to the media reports about the Telangana government and the ACB are planning to arrest him, “The day they try to arrest me would be the last day for their government. After all, who is KCR to arrest me and why should I worry about the arrest reports, when I didn’t commit any mistake? Telangana CM KCR is talking rubbish and very rudely. He may have to pay for it one day definitely,” said Chandrababu Naidu to media at New Delhi.

Who is accountable for audio, video tapes release to media?

Telangana ACB DGP AK Khan rubbished the AP government’s allegations of phone tapings. He said that ACB has never tapped any one’s phones. However, he admits that his officials have seized the mobile phone from the nominated MLA Elvis Stephenson to which Chandrababu Naidu is said to be called. If so, how his call details were leaked to media and who did it and why? Similarly, the video footage recorded by the ACB officials during their sting operation was also released to the media the next moment they arrest Revanth Reddy. Later, Mr. Khan told the media that his department has not released any video clippings to media. If the ACB has not released, then who did it and why did they do? Evidently, no one else can record the video evidence of Revanth Reddy except the ACB. So, the ACB might have handed over the video tapes to someone, which are supposed to be submitted to the court only. Is ACB not accountable for handing over the confidential records to outsiders? Mr. Khan may rubbish the phone tapping allegations but he may be asked to answer all these questions in the court.

AP Intelligence officials fail to alert the CM about phone tapping?

According to reports, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has fired the state Intelligence Chief, AR Anuradha, for failing to notice the phone tapings by the Telangana government. She also attends the cabinet meeting yesterday along with state DGP JV Ramudu and few others. She reportedly told the Chief Minister that Telangana police have imported latest phone tapping equipment that were not allowed in the country. Telangana Police may be hearing and recording the phone conversations of the AP Chief Minister and other ministers using that latest equipment. It can be found if the Central government orders for an investigation. If the report about her explanation is believed to be genuine, obviously one would ask then why she fails to alert the Chief Minister and others about it in-time, that could prevent all this mess. However, there is no official confirmation about her explanation to the Chief Minister on this matter. So, if the AP government takes any serious action against her, it would be acknowledging that whatever reported by the media about her explanation is genuine and thus tapping of Chief Minister and others phones is also true.

Indian Army conducts military operation in Myanmar

Indian army carried out a military operation deep inside neighboring Myanmar in the early hours of Tuesday and killed several militants, who were suspected to be attacked the Indian Army vehicles in Manipur few days ago in which 18 army men were killed. The Indian army commandoes have started military operation at 3 am on Tuesday and it continued for 13 hours. Indian Air Force helicopters and drones assisted them in their operation. All the soldiers, who take part in this operation, have safely returned to their base camps said Additional Director General, Military Operations, Maj Gen. Ranbir Singh. Minister of state for information and broadcasting Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore speaking to the media said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has ordered for conducting this military operation. He said “Attacks on Indians, be it in Iraq or wherever it may be, they were not acceptable to us. This is a strong message to our neighbors who harbor terrorists.” In an official release by Indian Army, “We want to ensure peace and tranquility along the borders. But, at the same time we will not allow outsiders pose any threat to our country’s safety, security and integrity. We will deal such elements with firm hand. This operation can be considered as an example for it.” This is first time for Indian Army to conduct military operation outside its territory. Earlier, it conducted joint military operation in Sri Lanka to comb the LTTE militants and ever since never conducted military operations outside the country. Hence, this would leave a strong message to the Pak based militants that they also can’t escape, if indulged in cross boarder terrorism.

AP and TS governments gearing for final battle?

Andhra Pradesh and Telangana governments have been indulged in a serious battle over vote for note and the phone tapping issues. They both have their own strengths and weaknesses to defend themselves and to counter each other. Telangana government possesses the audio and video recordings of Revanth Reddy’s conversation in Stephenson’s residence. It also collected his finger prints from the water glass served to him in his house. A phone call that Revanth Reddy received while at Stphenson’s residence is also establishing his location. The ACB officials may have collected some more crucial evidences to prove him guilty in this case. No surprise, if they try to drag Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu to the courts as he is preparing for serious battle with them instead of succumbing to their power play. Similarly, Andhra Pradesh government is claiming that total 120 phones including the Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s phone was tapped by the Telangana ACB. It is gathering necessary evidences to prove its allegations. If it could prove its allegations are genuine, then it can fix the Telangana Chief Minister KCR with the phone tapping case. If fails to prove its allegations, then its situation may turn bad to worse for making false allegations. Releasing video clippings of sting operation to media without ACB’s knowledge, releasing audio tape of Chandrababu Naidu’s phone conversation with MLA Stephenson to media without ACB knowledge, Telangana Home Minister Nayini Narasimha Reddy’s announcement about it prior to media release etc. may helpful to the AP government to argue that the Telangana government has conspired against it. However, Centre may take initiative to prevent any untoward incidents in both states, especially in the common capital where people of both states are living together.

If necessary, we will fight it out in the courts also.” “We have ordered for a thorough investigation into this phone tapping issue. I ask the Telangana government to reveal from where it got the audio tapes, when it is claiming that it did not tapped our phones. The evidences that should be presented to the court by the ACB is leaked to the media.

Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu will complain to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Home Minister Rajnath Singh, said Yanamala.

He will also meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and complain against Telangana CM KCR and his government for their alleged involvement in his phone tapping and some other serious issues related to Revanth Reddy’s case. But, it would be a very tricky situation for the Centre to take any decision in this issue otherwise, it would affect the BJP back in the AP and Telangana states. Hence, it may try to make compromise both Chief Ministers, instead of taking side of anyone.
