Chandrababu Suspends MLC Deepak Reddy

At last, AP CM Chandrababu Naidu on thursday suspended TDP MLC G. Deepak Reddy, who was arrested last week for his alleged involvement in a land scam.

Taking a serious note of the allegations against Reddy, TDP national president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu suspended the MLC, a close relative of TDP MP J.C. Diwakar Reddy.

According to party sources, Naidu conveyed to party leaders and ministers during a meeting of TDP coordination committee that those facing allegations of corruption had no place in the party. The MLC and his associates were allegedly involved in encroachment of land worth over Rs 160 crore in Asifnagar and Banjara Hills areas in the city.
