The Telugu Desam Party, an ally of Bharatiya Janata Party, has fielded Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy from Ongole Lok Sabha seat in the upcoming general elections, months after he and his son Raghava switched over from the YSR Congress Party to the Chandrababu-Naidu-led outfit...

Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, a four-time MP from Ongole, has been in the news after his name surfaced in the Delhi excise policy case in which Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal has been arrested..

After the MP replied in affirmative and said that the meeting was related to seek land for his family's trust, Kejriwal claimed that the ED was not happy and later arrested his son Raghav in February last year..

According to Kejriwal, Magunta Srinivas Reddy gave three statements to the agency but only one was considered..

"Why the only statement that is against Kejriwal has been included in the 25,000 pages of ED report and the other two statements were not considered?All the three statements should have been brought to the notice of the court, so that it could decide the truth in the case," Kejriwal added..
