Senior MP made sensational comments about voters
Furthermore, the Anantapur MP openly claiming that voters demanded Rs. 5,000 per vote and that they were forced to shell down Rs. 2,000 per vote has sent shock waves through political circles. Apparently JC Diwakar Reddy has always had the spotlight on him with his controversial statements. Meanwhile his latest one, however, may land him in fresh trouble with the Election Commission, observers say.
Moreover, it must be recalled that TDP MLA of the time, Revanth Reddy was caught red-handed while trying to bribe TRS MLA Elvis Stephenson in 2015in what has since come to be known as the ‘Note-for-Vote’ case. Recently an audio tape has since gone viral in what was widely reported as Chandrababu Naidu’s voice and he is heard telling Stephenson that he (Chandrababu) has been briefed by his men in the tape.
