DL Ravindra Reddy who was removed from the Health Ministry by the Chief Minsiter Kiran Kumar Reddy when DL was abroad at the time the action was recommended by the CM and approved by the Governor.  

DL says that he was not informed officially but came to know about it through some friends.  DL said that he is not feeling bad about his removal and he rather is feeling free now.

DL returned Hyderabad in the night yesterday and talked briefly to the media persons that he is a free bird now without any strings attached.  He said that as the intimation did not reach him, he does not know the reason for his removal from the Cabinet.  He said that he will inquire about it in the Assembly Affairs Office.

DL firmly said that he is for the Congress Party and he will work till his last for the party.  He said that his last rites will be done with the Congress flag covered over his corpse.   He questioned whether questioning in democracy is wrong.  Yes I questioned the activities in the State, said DL, and strongly opposed the permission given for prosecuting Dharmana Prasada Rao.

DL looked very cool and composed when he arrived at Hyderabad Shamshabad airport.
