Minister for Housing Kanna Laxminarayana on Sunday, at Guntur accused Telugu Desam Party Chief N. Chandrababu Naidu and the Kadapa MP Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy on various issues. He said Mr. Naidu was indulging in black mail politics and the Kadapa MP was claiming the welfare schemes as YSR schemes. He further elaborated to press on these issues.

Addressing the media persons, the Minister said that Naidu instead of facing the probe of Central Bureau of Investigation on his assets and properties, was dragging Congress president Sonia Gandhi and other ministers into the controversy and seeking inquiry against their properties.

He said that Naidu has no moral right to seek probe against Sonia Gandhi, who was working sincerely for party and government without involving in any controversy.

Kanna asked Naidu to face inquiry without any fear if he was not involved in any corruption and cooperate with the probing officials. Recalling that his petition against Naidu filed seven years ago was rejected by the court on technical grounds, the Minister said that court has not given any clean chit to the TDP chief in the case.

Kanna alleged that Naidu was politicizing the Racha Banda programme with an eye on the Chief Minister's post. He also slammed YSR Congress president Jagan Mohan Reddy for staking claim on the policies and schemes of YSR. He said that YSR introduced all schemes and programmes on behalf of Congress party and not at his personal level.

Everybody in the Congress would like to try their bit of luck by poking at Jagan and Naidu, now a days, by doing so they could gain popularity in the high circles. Yet another Minister has tried his hand at the act.
