BRS MLC Kaushik Reddy Planning To Assassinate My Husband: BJP MLA Eatala Rajender's Wife
BRS MLC Kaushik Reddy has denied the allegations and said that Eatala Rajender was an 'expert in murder politics'.
Eatala Jamuna, the wife of Telangana BJP MLA and former minister Eatala Rajender, has alleged that BRS MLC Kaushik Reddy was planning to assassinate her husband and has even allocated Rs 20 crore for this purpose.
Kaushik Reddy has denied the allegations and said that Rajender was an "expert in murder politics", IANS reported. Reddy said he was ready for a debate with Rajender on the allegations.
Addressing a press conference on Tuesday, Jamuna said, "Kaushik Reddy’s arrogance comes from the support provided to him by Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao."
Jamuna claimed that the alleged assassination plot was a result of Rajender's victory in the Huzurabad constituency. She said that since voters of Huzurabad taught a lesson to CM KCR by electing Rajender, he was taking revenge from people of the constituency. She accused Kaushik Reddy of causing trouble in Huzurabad with the support of KCR.

Jamuna also criticised the lack of action taken against Kaushik Reddy for his remarks against Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan. She asserted that the upcoming Assembly election would witness the unity of women in Huzurabad, who will fight for better and safer governance.
Jamuna denied rumors that her husband was planning to leave the BJP. Eatala Rajender had left the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and joined the BJP in 2021 after being dropped from the Cabinet by KCR over allegations of land encroachment.
Rajender had also resigned from Assembly and contested the by-election on BJP's ticket. He retained the seat with a comfortable majority.
According to the IANS report, Kaushik Reddy is a member of the Telangana Legislative Council. He resigned from the Congress party to join the BRS. He aspired to receive a BRS ticket in Huzurabad. However, the BRS fielded G Srinivas Yadav as their candidate. Kaushik Reddy was later appointed as a member of the Legislative Council.
