    The last time I met Y S Jaganmohan Reddy was the day before he was arrested by the CBI. I remember asking him if anyone from the Congress in Delhi was in touch with him. He replied in the negative. My source had however told me some functionaries in the...

    The knives are out in the sickle and hammer party. Former chief minister V S Achuthanandan, for long at the receiving end of the Pinarayi Vijayan-led faction within the Kerala CPI(M), seems to have decided to take the bull by the horns. His visit to slain Revolutionary Marxist Party leader...

    Pardon this unparliamentary phrase but if sources in the CBI are to be believed, the s*** from Bellary has hit the ceiling in Hyderabad. The Andhra Pradesh High court Chief Justice Madan Lokur on his last but one day in office suspended First Additional Special Judge for CBI cases, T...

    The tap of news hasn’t stopped leaking from sources at the CBI and Dilkusha Guest House. The how and why the CBI decided to arrest Y S Jaganmohan Reddy on Sunday evening after he reportedly evaded questions for three days, demonstrated a headstrong attitude and even misbehaved with CBI officials....

  5. CBI – Blackmailing wing of the ruling party?

    / May 29, 2012 / Leave a comment
    The arrest of YS Jagan raises more questions than it answers. It yet again reiterates how the investigating agency and its personnel can be visibly partisan. The march of event inspires little confidence. The methodology shows the Central investigating agency in poor light. So often has it happened that it...

  6. Jagan’s arrest shows the rotten state of AP politics

    The arrest of Y S Jaganmohan Reddy merely exemplifies the rotten state of politics in Andhra Pradesh. Gloating over his arrest by the CBI or accusing the CBI of vindictive action are both uncalled for. All traditional parties in the state have been guilty of abusing power and indulging in...

    So, it has finally happened, after nine months of low-brow nautanki. The arrest of Jaganmohan Reddy, that is. The arrest was long past due; in fact it was nine months in the making. But better late than never, I am thinkng. But before we move on with this post, here’s...

  8. An opportunity for Kiran to do a KKR

    I don’t think cricketer-turned-politician Kiran Kumar Reddy would have found the time to catch the finals of the IPL last night. If nothing else, he can take heart from the fact that a KKR – Kolkata Knight Riders – had triumphed. Will KKR win the Andhra Pradesh Political League as...

    The last four hours or so have been like a suspense thriller ever since news filtered out that Jaganmohan Reddy will be arrested today. It is no surprise that he eventually has been arrested given the fact that he is accused number 1 in the disproportionate assets case, particularly when...

    She has not changed in all these years. Yes, I am talking of Jayaprada and am not talking only about the way she looks. The actor, described by a person no less than Satyajit Ray as `the most beautiful face on the Indian screen’, has said, “she is getting lots...
