TDP preparing to attack TRS on phone tapping, to seek Section 8 in Hyderabad again

TDP has once again started attacking the TRS party over the 'phone tapping' issue. There were reports that three telecom service providers reportedly admitted before the Supreme Court that following the directive of the Telangana Government, they had tapped several phone numbers of Andhra Pradesh.

This has come as a major relief to the AP Government, which is facing series of allegations. Led by TDP young leader Nara Lokesh, the party is preparing to take up the issue to corner the TRS over the 'phone tapping'.

The case is in the Vijayawada court and the telecom providers were asked to present the data in a sealed cover within a week. Many TDP leaders have started saying that they have got all the evidence to nail the Telangana Government. They alleged that the TRS government had tapped the phones of 200 persons belonging to Andhra Pradesh.

Sources in the TDP say that the party's senior leaders have decided to launch an out and out attack on the Telangana Government if it takes any further step on the cash-for-vote scam. The TDP may take 'phone tapping's issue once again to Delhi and seek imposition of Section-8 in Hyderabad.
