Rama Rao met BRS corporators on Saturday but deputy mayor Mothe Srilatha Shoban Reddy stayed away. Meanwhile, three Congress corporators met GHMC commissioner Ronald Rose on Saturday complained that the BRS MLA of their constituencies were ignoring protocol. Borabanda corporator Baba Fasiuddin, who recently joined Congress from the BRS, said that while a common citizen had access to Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, BRS corporators were unable to meet party chiefs K. Chandrashekar Rao and Rama Rao.
