Probe Rahul Gandhi Phone Tapping Allegations: Mahesh Kumar Goud

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president Mahesh Kumar Goud has levelled serious allegations over the alleged phone tapping of Congress leader and Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi. He claimed that the phone tapping allegations were completely true and said the party had suspected such surveillance for some time. According to Goud, information about Rahul Gandhi’s planned speeches in Parliament was allegedly obtained through phone tapping, after which he was prevented from speaking by not being given the microphone. He maintained that Rahul Gandhi had made the allegations based on concrete evidence.

Calling phone tapping an anti-democratic act and a serious offence, Goud demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi accept the challenge posed by Rahul Gandhi. He alleged that the BJP and BRS were working in alignment, accusing the Modi and Amit Shah leadership at the Centre of following the same approach adopted by the BRS during its decade in power in Telangana. He predicted that the BJP would face a similar political fate and expressed confidence that Rahul Gandhi would become Prime Minister. Goud also said that the phone tapping allegations would be investigated and appropriate action taken against those responsible.
