Speaking with the media a few days ago, BRS working president KTR commented that Revanth Reddy is not the publicly-elected CM of Telangana but instead paid Rs 50 crore to Congress' Manickam Tagore and managed the Congress high command to get the post. 

Shortly after, Manickam Tagore sent out a defamation notice to KTR as he tweeted "A defamation notice has been sent to Koduku. Perhaps he's too engrossed in his farm house entertainments to bother with a reply. If he doesn't respond in 7 days, it's off to court we go!".

Shortly after KTR was served the notice, he responded on social media and pushed the blame onto Congress leader Komatireddy Venkat Reddy. 

"Manickam Garu, Why are you in a confused mode and misdirecting these notices?

It was your colleague congressman & MP Venkat Reddy who had alleged on record that Revanth Reddy bribed you and bought the PCC president post for ₹50 Crore. I had merely quoted the same since it was reported widely in media. Neither did Venkat Reddy withdraw the allegation nor did he offer an explanation till date

Suggest that you redirect the defamation notice to the right address of Mr. Venkat Reddy who now sits in Telangana secretariat" KTR reverted to Tagore's notice.
