HYDERABAD: Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy launched a no-holds-barred attack on the BJP on Thursday, accusing the saffron party which is heading the coalition ruling at the Centre of becoming a threat to the nation.
Addressing a protest organised by Congress workers demanding an investigation into allegations raised in the Hindenburg report, Revanth demanded the NDA government agree to constitute a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) to probe the allegations of a nexus between Madhabi Puri Buch, the SEBI chairperson, and the Adani Group.
During the protest at the zonal office of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in Hyderabad, Revanth, along with other Congress leaders, submitted a representation to ED officials seeking a thorough investigation into the matter. “When the party gives a call, everyone, irrespective of their position, should obey. It’s the reason I am participating in this protest,” he said.

The TPCC chief accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of dodging questions related to the Adani group in Parliament. He pointed out India’s debt burden had shot up from Rs 55,000 crore in 2014 to Rs 1.15 lakh crore during Modi’s tenure, claiming that the prime minister doubled the country’s debt compared to the 16 prime ministers who preceded him.
Revanth said that PM Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah believed only in the “Hum do.. Hamare do” approach and alleged that they were facilitating corruption and allowing the country’s wealth to be looted. He demanded the resignation of the SEBI chairperson and an ED investigation into the alleged scam.
