‘Vote chori’ row: Chandrababu Naidu in touch with Rahul Gandhi via Revanth Reddy, alleges Jagan Reddy

New Delhi: YSR Congress Party president Jagan Mohan Reddy on Wednesday alleged that Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is in touch with Congress MP Rahul Gandhi through Telangana CM Revanth Reddy on a hotline.

Reddy, a former chief minister of Andhra Pradesh, was responding to a query about Gandhi’s ‘vote chori’ allegations during a press conference in Amaravati. During the presser, Reddy claimed Gandhi did not speak about ‘vote chori’ in Andhra Pradesh because he is in touch with him via Revanth Reddy.

He also said that the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha does not talk about Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, who recently lost the assembly elections in Delhi.

“When Rahul Gandhi talks about vote chori, why does he not make a statement on Andhra, where the highest 12.5 per cent is the vote difference between what was announced versus on the counting day when the votes were counted,” Reddy said.

“Rahul Gandhi does not talk about Andhra because Chandrababu Naidu is in touch with Rahul Gandhi through Revanth Reddy on a hotline… What should I comment on someone like Rahul Gandhi, who himself is not sincere about what he does?” he added.
