Will file defamation cases against character assassination, says Telangana Congress leader and MLA Jayaprakash Reddy

Congress senior leader and MLA T. Jayaprakash Reddy on Monday warned that some people are trying to tarnish his image and assassinate his character, but it will not be tolerated any more. He has warned of filing defamation cases, if required.

In an interaction with media persons at the Assembly, Mr. Jayaprakash Reddy said that despite giving clarity on the rumours about shifting his loyalty, some people are still hurling mud at him.

“I have grown politically after a lot of struggle... Even today I have not earned anything and still have a huge debt... Spent crores of rupees on organising public meetings... I will complain to party high command, TPCC and CLP leaders if someone tries to blame me further and throw mud,” said Mr. Jayaprakash Reddy, adding that he would issue legal notices and file defamation cases.
