Veteran BJP leader and former Deputy Prime Minister LK Advani, 98, is being discharged from Indraprastha Apollo Hospital after showing improvement following treatment for a chest infection. He was admitted on October 16 and remains a prominent figure in Indian politics
Former Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao and ex-Finance Minister T. Harish Rao approached the High Court seeking to nullify the Ghose Commission report on alleged irregularities in the Kaleshwaram Project. They argue the report is politically driven and procedurally flawed, citing violations under Sections 8B and 8C of the Commissions of Inquiry Act.
On Thursday, Kurnool Range DIG Koya Praveen and Annamayya district SP V Vidyasagar Naidu said the arrests were made on Monday after Tamil Nadu police sought assistance from their Andhra Pradesh counterparts to track down Siddique and Ali.
The nation's highest civilian award was given to Advani at his official residence on Easter Sunday, the day the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was formed in 1980.
Countering Kishan Reddy’s comments, AICC spokesperson D Sravan stressed that BJP leaders should learn to respect their veteran leaders, who toiled hard all their life in building the party.
