Telangana Congress Panel Set to Issue Notice to MLA Over Criticism of Chief Minister

The disciplinary committee has opened proceedings against Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy after he accused the chief minister of delaying corruption probes.

Overview

  • The Telangana Congress disciplinary committee, chaired by Mallu Ravi, is considering a formal notice to MLA Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy for publicly rebuking Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy.
  • Rajagopal Reddy charged that over 20 Andhra Pradesh–based contractors looted funds from the Kaleshwaram irrigation project and accused the chief minister of stalling investigations.
  • He renewed demands for the three vacant ministerial berths promised when he rejoined Congress in 2023 and pressed for immediate local body elections.
  • His public dissent highlights growing tensions within the state party around unfulfilled leadership promises, governance accountability and regional equity.
  • The MLA also criticised disparities in development funding, pointing to a reported Rs 5,000 crore allocation to the chief minister’s constituency as evidence of favouritism.
