Textiles and Handlooms Minister Dr P Shanker Rao is a maverick, who has been on a rampage for some time now. Shanker created sensation when his letter was treated as PIL by High Court and ordered CBI inquiry agianst Jagan Mohan Reddy. Of late, he has been making allegations against his own Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy as well as other ministerial colleagues openly.
A letter purported to have been written by Shanker Rao is now doing the rounds in the media. The letter is a complaint to Congress chief Sonia Gandhi against CM Kiran, who is described as ‘corrupt, and several other ministers in his cabinet. The sooner they are removed from their posts the better for the Congress Party, the letter advises.
While Shanker Rao vehemently denied that he had written and that his letterhead was stolen and his signature forged, the moot point who was the brains behind the letter since it certainly points to a vested interest. Here is copy of the letter allegedly written by Shanker Rao.
