Taking to X, sharing screenshots of newspaper reports related to National Herald case, he wrote, "Telangana has become an ATM for Scamgress and it's been now corroborated by agencies As the ED charge sheets Telangana "Bag Man" in National Herald case, he is trying his best to distract the people's attention from his corrupt practices The million dollar question is whether the NDA Govt will act this time or pardon Revant Reddy as they've done in the case of Amrut Scam, RR Tax and Civil supplies scam"

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) presented its opening arguments before Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court regarding the cognisance of its complaint against Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and others in connection with a money laundering case linked to the National Herald.

In the opening submissions, Additional Solicitor General (ASG) S V Raju submitted that an offence of money laundering is made out in this case. He also submitted that there were proceeds of crime. It was also submitted that there was continuing criminal activity for the generation of proceeds of crime, which constitutes the offence of money laundering.

After hearing the opening submitted by ASG S V Raju and Special Counsel for ED Zoheb Hosain, the Special Judge listed the matter for remaining arguments from July 2 to July 8. Special judge Vishal Gogne listed the matter for day-to-day hearing on the point of cognisance of ED's Prosecution complaint against Gandhi and other accused persons.

The court listed the matter in July after hearing the submissions of defence counsel, who urged for a hearing in July, given voluminous documents totalling 5,000 pages.

KTR is absolutely right! Congress has turned Telangana into their personal ATM. The corruption cases keep piling up but no action is taken. When will our state get clean governance? 😡

While I'm no fan of Congress, KTR should remember BRS wasn't exactly corruption-free either. Pot calling the kettle black? We need better alternatives in Telangana politics.

National Herald case has been going on for years. When will we see actual convictions? Our judicial system moves too slowly in political cases. Justice delayed is justice denied!

"Scamgress" is such a clever term 😂 But seriously, Telangana deserves better. Both BRS and Congress have failed us. Maybe time for a new regional party?

ED should investigate all parties equally. Why only target Congress? What about BJP's own scams? Political vendetta is clear as daylight.

As a Telangana resident, I'm tired of this political drama. Instead of mudslinging, leaders should focus on development work. Our state has so much potential!
