Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has alleged that the ruling Congress party in Telangana has utilised the Tukkuguda public meeting, organised by spending ₹100 crore, only to lash out at former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao and level allegations about phone tapping. However, no Congress leader spoke about what their Government did in the past four months.
Stating that the Congress Government was running a web series on phone tapping, BRS leader Manne Krishank said in Hyderabad on Monday that it was the former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh who had stressed the need for phone tapping, when he was leading the Government, for national security. Mr. Krishank sought to know whether they had run a web series on phone tapping then too.
Mr. Krishnak played a video clipping of the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh justifying phone tapping in the world “we live in” for national security and allaying apprehensions of the corporate and other sections.
