Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Saturday launched a scathing attack on former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), accusing him of orchestrating widespread phone tapping during his tenure.

Addressing the media in Karimnagar, Sanjay alleged that the phone tapping scandal has deeply affected the lives of many individuals across political and administrative circles.

"Phone tapping took place at Sircilla Centre, and everyone knows who is behind it," Sanjay said, pointing fingers at former Intelligence Chief Prabhakar Rao. He labelled Rao a "vile man" who, he claimed, tapped the phones of several BJP leaders, including himself, as well as Congress leaders like Revanth Reddy and Uttam Kumar Reddy, and even judges, IAS and IPS officers.

Sanjay claimed that KCR's “inherent suspicion" led him to order surveillance on members of his own party. "If judges' phones were tapped, there must be a CBI inquiry," he demanded.
