Roja urges CEC to bar TDP from contesting polls

Raptadu (Anantapur): YSRCP leader and MLA Roja lambasted Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for his dubious role in Cash-for-Vote’ case and his alleged role in AP data theft case.

Participating in a massive meeting of women group members at Raptadu village near here on Friday, the film actress-turned-MLA alleged that the Chief Minister was caught red-handed as a thief in the dubious criminal cases involving crores of rupees of bribery. 

She demanded the arrest of the Chief Minister and his son Nara Lokesh for their connivance in the data theft case. Roja said that it is criminal to transfer government data involving personal details of citizens including bank accounts of people. She demanded the CEC to bar TDP from contesting elections until a probe is conducted into the cases pending against the Chief Minister.

Roja had a dig at Minister for Woman and Child Welfare Paritala Sunitha for harassing political opponents. She accused Sunitha of indulging in embezzlement of public money to the tune of Rs 3,000 crore. She said that the entire Paritala clan is engaged in their family welfare and had thrown to the winds the woes of people in villages. Raptadu YSRCP candidate Topudurthi Prakash Reddy and other YCP leaders also spoke on the occasion.
