Hyderabad: The Jubilee Hills police on Saturday booked a case against Kodangal MLA A Revanth Reddy for making ‘defamatory’ and ‘abusive’ comments against Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao during his visit to a temple in Hyderabad.

Revanth Reddy had on Saturday visited Peddammathalli temple in Jubilee Hills before leaving for Yetigadda Kistapur in Medak district to join the protest of farmers. Later, he spoke to media. “He (MLA Revanth Reddy) commented that the CM went to Amaravathi inauguration without any shame, but is not concerned about the people of Telangana,” stated TRS leader M Goverdhan Reddy in his complaint to the Jubilee Hills police.
