MLA poaching row: Telangana BJP chief dares CM KCR to ‘be ready for lie detector’

BJP state president Bandi Sanjay on Saturday challenged Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao to swear that he isn`t involved in the MLA poaching. “KCR ran away without accepting my challenge. He did not come because KCR was involved in this matter,” said the BJP state president Bandi Sanjay.

He demanded that an inquiry be conducted with the sitting judge or the CBI to find out the whole matter. “If KCR is not involved, he should be ready for a lie detector,” said Bandi Sanjay. Bandi Sanjay further demanded Chief Minister KCR write a letter asking the CBI to conduct an inquiry into the entire matter.

“KCR knows that the Munugode assembly bypoll is going to be a setback for the party (TRS) and hence all of this has been plotted. I came here and took an oath. I am asking Chief Minister KCR, can he do the same?” said Sanjay. 

Earlier on Friday, amid the ongoing MLAs poaching controversy in Telangana, state BJP chief Sanjay Bandi took an oath in wet clothes at Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple in Yadadri and said that the party has no role in the case.
