MP Lingaiah demands Revanth Reddy tender apology to Golla Kuruma community
Rajya Sabha MP Badugula Lingaiah Yadav
His remarks comes after TPCC chief Revanth Reddy’s comments against Talasani Srinivas Reddy
Hyderabad: Badugula Lingaiah Yadav, Rajya Sabha MP on Friday slammed the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee chief A Revanth Reddy over his comments against Animal Husbandry Minister Talasani Srinivas Yadav. The MP demanded Revanth Reddy tender an unconditional apology for insulting the Golla Kuruma community.
He addressed the media persons along with MLC Yegge Mallesham at the BRSLP office.
He criticised Revanth for displaying his caste-based arrogance to criticise his political opponents. He contrasted it with the Yadava community’s values of honesty, integrity, and harmonious relations with all other communities.
“It is inappropriate for Revanth Reddy to degrade castes for his political agenda. It is unfortunate that we had to face these remarks from Revanth Reddy whose involvement in the cash-for-vote scandal is well-known,” he added.
The Rajya Sabha member pointed out that while Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao supports the weaker sections for their empowerment, Revanth Reddy was subjecting them to humiliation. He demanded an immediate apology from Revanth Reddy to the Golla Kurumas.
Terming Revanth Reddy as a blackmailer, MLC Yegge Mallesham said the former lacked culture and ethics as he made casteist slur against Srinivas Yadav, disregarding his seniority in politics. He asserted that in future wherever Revanth Reddy contests elections, the Golla Kurumas would ensure his defeat.
