PNS|Amaravati

Former minister and TDP senior leader, Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy, on Thursday, demanded the immediate resignation of Minister Kakani Goverdhan Reddy, if he has any ethical or moral values.

Narrating the incidents that indirectly proved Kakani Goverdhan Reddy, guilty, Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy told media persons here that Goverdhan Reddy created fake documents that he ( Somireddy) owns properties worth Rs 1000 cr in some foreign countries. ”As I complained to the police then with regard to these fake documents, an inquiry was conducted and the gang which prepared these fake documents was taken into custody,” Somireddy explained.

But, Kakani, who was behind the preparation of these fake documents moved to the Supreme Court and obtained conditional bail then. The police, however, submitted the documents and the inquiry report along with evidence, to the court. Kakani Goverdhan Reddy took oath as Minister on April 11 this year but within a couple of days, on April 13, these documents missed from the court, the TDP leader pointed out.

The High Court considered this seriously and admitted the case of these missing files as suo moto and ordered a CBI probe into it. This clearly indicates that the judiciary does not have faith in the State police or even the CID, Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy said adding that Kakani Goverdhan Reddy is facing charges in a spurious liquor case in Nellore also.

In view of this, Kakani should immediately resign as Minister if he has any ethical or moral values, he added. The TDP leader also wanted the CBI to investigate the case fast without dragging the matter.
