YSRCP leader seeks probe into ‘forgery’ by TDP

Amaravati, April 15 (SocialNews.XYZ) YSR Congress Party member of Parliament V. Vijayasai Reddy, here on Wednesday, sought a police probe into alleged forging and fabrication of documents by the Telugu Desam Party (TDP).

Reddy, a member of Rajya Sabha, wrote to Andhra Pradesh Director General of Police Gautham Sawang demanding a probe by the Central Forensic Laboratory (CFL) into the difference in signatures of State Election Commissioner N. Ramesh Kumar on two documents.

He enclosed copies of the notification issued by the State Election Commissioner on March 15 and its letter to the Union Home Secretary three days later.

He sent the letter five days after the state government removed Kumar over postponement of the local body elections by him.

The MP alleged the documents were forged and fabricated at the TDP office in Mangalagiri, in collusion and knowledge of Kumar at the instance of the TDP leadership to make the YSRCP government unpopular.

The YSRCP leader claimed the letter to the Union Home Secretary was drafted by MP K. Ravindra Kumar at the instance of TDP leaders Varla Ramaiah and T.D. Janardhan. He also urged the police chief to locate the IP address from which the letter was mailed on March 18.

Seeking immediate action, he said it would have a bearing in the adjudication by the courts hearing petitions against Kumar's actions.

Kumar in his letter to the Union Home Ministry had sought protection and made sweeping allegations against the YSRCP government. The letter was sent three after Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy slammed Kumar for postponing the polls at the TDP's instance.
