Hyderabad: A purported phone conversation related to the poaching of TRS MLAs has trickled out. In that audio, there is a conversation between Ramachandra Bharati and Nanda Kumar with TRS MLA Pilot Rohit Reddy. ETV Bharat could not independently verify whether the voice in the audio clip belongs to the said trio and the legislator.
Here are some extracts from the conversation
Rohit Reddy: How are you?
Swamiji: There were a few discussions between Nandu and us. If we get even more information, then we can proceed. We have spoken to the people and they've given us a heads-up. If you share the names, it'll be easier.
Rohit: Swamiji I cannot, it'll be difficult. Only two people have given me confirmation. Once we meet, we can speak with them.
Swamiji: Yes, sure. Till the 24th I'm on bed rest after that should I come to Hyderabad? or somewhere else as we don't want it in Hyderabad? We can sit and discuss and then we can move on.
Rohit: The problem is Swamiji, now this election is going on. So Hyderabad would be the best place because we are all residents of Hyderabad. Nandu was telling me Santhosh Ji can come on the chartered flight and we can have a meeting for like half an hour.
Swamiji: I will tell you tomorrow morning. I'll discuss with Santhosh if Balki is ready. Then Santhosh will come there.
Rohit: We are ready including me.
Swamiji: See what we can do after 24th, I will come to Hyderabad. We'll sit and make a decision on the same day and move on.
Rohit: Actually, Nandu Ji gave me the proposal. And he assured me of taking care of me in all the ways. In terms of my safety, security, political career, in terms of other things as well.
Swamiji: Absolutely. We can discuss the same with you in person. So there will not be any issues over it. Because it is first come first serve basis. In spite of the system, you know exactly the things also. So it will be easy for us to promote you, right?
Rohith: So I'll wait for you on the 24.
Swamiji: Not 24. Till 24, I'm likely in Delhi. On the 25, I can make it. Within 27-28, we'll finish it. That'll be better.
Rohit: I'm not at all in a hurry, but Nandu was only telling me tomorrow, tomorrow...
Swamiji: See, before the Nov 3 election, if we can move forward, that would result in some other things as well. See we need some good leaders in our sector also. For that reason, we're looking to a higher authority. That is the only reason I put more pressure on Nandu. Sorry for that, but for the last five days, Nandu hasn't slept for a night. Actually, he brought some other people but we need some qualified people.
Rohit: One other request, Swamiji, instead of trying more people, first go with three of us as we are ready because if the word goes out we'll be literally screwed up. You know about our CM, he is a very aggressive guy and he will screw our happiness.
Swamiji: That's why I'm asking for names, If I'm getting names, it'll be easy for me to put them forward. Santosh is the organizing secretary who looks after all these things for BJP. He is the key person, so numbers 1 and 2 will come to Santosh's house and he will not go there that is what RSS protocol he follows.
Rohit: Really Sorry, as of now I can't reveal names. I request you keep this confidential.
Swamiji: If anything, a little bit of an issue means we can patch up and resolve it. We will give complete protection from the Centre. Don't worry, it is our responsibility to take care of you. When you are in our scanner, you don't have to worry. Like from ED to income tax anything. No need to worry. That is also under our scanner.
