AP: Opposition leaders being arrested in false cases: Ex CM Jagan Reddy

Vijayawada, Dec 4 (UNI) YSRCP President and former Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has come down heavily on the Naidu headed AP government alleging that false cases are being foisted against the YSRCP leaders and they are being harassed.
Talking to the media in the State office at Tadepalli near here on Thursday, he said that in the liquor scam, the government is arresting YSRCP leaders. "It is their government, the manufacturing units belong to their people, they run the distribution network and spurious liquor units sprout across the state with numerous belt shops. But YSRCP leaders and close associates are booked which is an irrational move," Reddy said.
Naming the former ministers and other top leaders of his party being investigated, Jagan Reddy pointed out that Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu himself is involved in liquor scam and he is on bail on other serious cases and resorting to arm twisting tactics which is a clear violation of bail conditions.
