Rebel MLA Kotamreddy writes to Amit Shah over phone tapping issue

TIRUPATI: Kotamreddy Sridhar Reddy, MLA of Nellore Rural constituency, appealed to Union home minister Amit Shah to initiate a probe into the tapping of his phones by the Andhra Pradesh intelligence department. The disgruntled YSR Congress MLA told reporters in Nellore on Wednesday that he had written to the Union home minister requesting an investigation into his phone tapping. Sridhar Reddy also planned to visit Delhi and complain directly to Amit Shah once his appointment with the Union minister was confirmed. The YSRC leaders, who denied Sridhar Reddy’s claims, believe that MLA Sridhar Reddy fabricated the charges in order to join the Telugu Desam.
