BRS leader K Kavitha

Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s daughter and BRS leader K Kavitha has organized a a round table conference in New Delhi on Wednesday with political parties, civil society organisations and others to push for the introduction of the Women’s Reservation Bill in Parliament.

According to reports, the round table conference which has been organized by a Bharat Jagruthi—a cultural organisation headed by Kavitha—would be held a hotel in Delhi on March 15 from 3 pm to 5 pm in the evening.

Kavitha recently led a hunger strike in Delhi on March 10 seeking the passage of the long-pending Women’s Reservation Bill in the ongoing Budget session of Parliament. However, both Congress and the BJP have alleged that Kavitha’s hunger strike was a mere ploy to divert attention from her appearance before the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the purported Delhi liquor policy scam case.

The ED, a central agency which probes financial crimes, grilled KCR’s daughter for nine hours on March 11, to record her statement in connection with a money laundering case linked to the alleged Delhi liquor policy scam case.

Kavitha has been summoned again on March 16 by the ED.

The ED case alleges that K Kavitha is part of the South Cartel that benefited from kickbacks after Delhi’s now-scrapped liquor policy came into force. The South Group comprises Kavitha, Sarath Reddy (promoter of Aurobindo Group), Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy (MP, Ongole), his son Raghav Magunta, and others.

The South Group was being represented by Hyderabad-based businessman Arun Ramchandra Pillai, Abhishek Boinpalli and Butchi Babu, the federal agency investigation has revealed.

The probe agency has claimed its investigations have revealed that Pillai—who was arrested earlier this month— along with his associates was coordinating with various persons to execute a political understanding between the South Group and a leader of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

Pillai has been accessory and was involved in the kickbacks from the South Group and the recoupment of the same from the businesses in Delhi, ED claimed.
