Addressing a press conference, Maheshwar Reddy said that it had been a tradition for long to give the post of PAC chairman to the Opposition party, and by breaking the tradition the Congress had lost the trust of the people.

Coming down heavily on Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, the BJLP leader alleged that the Chief Minister was making unilateral decisions and breaking rules and traditions. Though a majority of senior Congress leaders were against defections, Revanth Reddy was encouraging defections from opposition parties, he alleged.

Ponnam Prabhakar welcoming the decision of HC on MLA defection case is an indication that several Congress leaders do not support defections, ” he said.  (Maxim News)
