Describing the media reports as baseless and false, Mr Srinivas said the opposition has launched a malicious campaign against the Congress to gain political mileage.

The PCC chief also stated that the government has agreed for Joint Legislature Committee probe so that allegations of irregularities in the allotments of lands to business associates of former MP YS Jaganmohan Reddy would be cleared exposed.

“Wrongdoings, if any, would be exposed and the guilty would be punished,” Mr Srinivas stated. He also condemned the reports that Congress had made a secret deal with the Telugu Desam Party over the constitution of the JLC.

Mr Srinivas stated that the reason behind Agriculture Minister YS Vivekananda Reddy tendering his resignation was due to the fact that his term as MLC had ended. However, he pointed out that Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy had refused to accept the resignation.
