Even bitter opposed national parties, the
congress and the
bjp, agree on almost everything about eavesdropping. They find similar ground in this topic, notwithstanding their differences on issues such as Kaleswaram. This agreement stems from the fact that Telangana's leaders from both parties were victims. During the BRS era, not only Revant
reddy but also Bandi Sanjay were victims of
phone tapping.
Leaders of the
bharatiya janata party are fiercely criticizing the former administration as more identities in this case keep coming to light. Union
minister and
bjp State President
kishan reddy said that the incident was the fault of the former Chief Minister. He said that KCR, the previous
chief minister and head of the BRS, had handled this scandal involving some ministries, top officials, and retired officials improperly. It is disgusting to use
phone tapping as a means of blackmailing individuals and accumulating millions of rupees.
M. Raghunandan Rao, the BJP's parliamentary candidate for Medak, has urged that former
chief minister KCR be identified as the main suspect in the
phone tapping case. In addition, he stated that he had challenges, had his
phone bugged, and had his campaign tactics revealed during the Dubbaka by-election.
phone tapping was blamed for
bjp candidate Rajagopal Reddy's loss in the last by-election. Additionally, there are claims that
bjp leader BL Santosh's
phone was bugged and used information from the cases.
