The Bharat Rashtra Samithi has formally asked the Enforcement Directorate to probe the assets and business dealings of Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s family, as reported by The Economic Times.
The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has lodged a formal request with the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to investigate the financial holdings and commercial activities of the family of Telangana’s chief minister, Revanth Reddy. The demand was reported by The Economic Times, which cited a statement from the party’s leadership.
The ED, which handles cases of money laundering and illicit financial flows, is typically called upon when there are suspicions of undisclosed wealth or irregular transactions. In this instance, BRS has not disclosed specific allegations, but the call for a probe signals a desire for greater scrutiny of the chief minister’s familial business interests.
Political analysts note that the request arrives amid heightened rivalry in Telangana’s state politics, where opposition parties often seek investigative action against ruling figures. While BRS framed the demand as a matter of transparency, no official response from the chief minister’s office has been recorded at the time of reporting.
The move underscores the growing use of investigative agencies as tools in political contests, and it remains to be seen whether the ED will initiate a formal inquiry based on the party’s petition.
