Raghunandan Rao, the Telangana BJP MP, has turned to the High Court for an impartial audit of the wealth of the state’s political heavyweights—chiefly Revanth Reddy and BRS president KTR. He wants revenue, registration, company and tax records, as well as election affidavits, scrutinised by a judge, arguing that the current accusations are merely political smears.
Revanth Reddy, meanwhile, has been on the attack against the former Chief Minister KCR and his family, claiming they amassed about ₹1 lakh crore in property during their decade in power. He singled out hospitality assets around HITEC City—Deccan Serai and AtHome serviced apartments—and listed Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills, and several farmhouses in Janwada, Shankarpally, Moinabad and Erravelli as possible holdings.
BRS has not stayed silent. Manne Krishank, a BRS leader, demanded an Enforcement Directorate probe into alleged business links with Medicover Hospitals, Maxbien Pharma and other companies, alleging that ₹13,000 crore of unaccounted money was legitimised through Medicover‑related transactions. A fresh case has already been registered against Krishank for the same allegations.
The feud escalated last week when BRS MLA KP Vivekananda gave Revanth Reddy a 24‑hour deadline to answer the accusations, threatening a direct agitation if he failed to comply. The BJP’s move to seek judicial intervention is seen as a counter‑strike in this broader war of corruption charges.
With the High Court now set to consider Rao’s petition, political observers say the next few days will determine whether the court will appoint a judge to carry out the audit. The outcome could force a reckoning of assets that has already rattled both ruling and opposition camps.
