A case was registered against senior BRS leader T Harish Rao after allegations of phone tapping by a real estate businessman. The complainant, who lost in the elections, believes his phone was monitored, possibly influenced by Rao. The investigation continues amid political accusations.

A senior BRS leader, T Harish Rao, faces serious allegations as a real estate businessman accuses him of phone tapping, according to the police.

The businessman, G Chakradhar Goud, who ran for a seat in the 2023 assembly elections but lost, claims Rao, former Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao's nephew, used intelligence services to track his actions.

The case has triggered a political storm, with Rao countering, accusing current Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy of fabricating charges in retaliation for exposing his misdeeds.
