It is well known that the issue of phone tapping has been creating a stir in Telangana politics for some time now. Several sensational revelations are coming to light in this matter. After the return of former Special Intelligence Bureau (SIB) chief Prabhakar Rao from the United States, the investigation has gained further momentum. The SIT officials investigating the case are also recording statements from the victims of the tapping. Political leaders are openly criticizing the former BRS government, especially former CM KCR and former minister KTR. They are even mentioning their names on record in front of the media. Various reports on this are also surfacing in the media. In this context, BRS workers attacked the Mahaa News office in Hyderabad on Saturday. They vandalized the vehicles parked in front of the office and also attacked the premises by pelting stones. The main reason behind this was the news aired on Mahaa News related to former minister KTR in connection with the phone tapping issue. Responding to the same issue, former minister and BRS working president KTR also reacted on social media.

He stated: “For the past few months, some lowlifes masquerading as journalists running media houses have been spewing venom on me and my party leadership. While I hardly care for their opinions or existence, the repeated attacks of character assassination are taking a toll on my family, friends and party colleagues. I will be taking legal action on each and everyone of them. I am fully aware of who is behind these organised attempts – will deal with them appropriately.” There is nothing wrong to be found in this. In the past as well, KTR had served legal notices and filed court cases against those who wrote false news about him or made allegations. But this time, BRS workers have gone as far as attacking a media channel itself. This must be called a dangerous trend. Even though there are legal avenues available to deal with false news in any media outlet, by resorting to such attacks, BRS seems to have introduced a new tradition.
