Dokka asks Jagan to prove innocence in court

                                                                               
Rural Development Minister Dokka Manikyavaraprasad Rao on Wednesday asked YSRC chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy not to make a “hue and cry'' over freezing of the accounts of his firms including Sakshi daily and Sakshi television.
Instead, Mr Jaganmohan Reddy should fight his case in court taking a cue from former Prime Minister P V Narasimha Rao who had come out clean fighting corruption charges in courts, he said while addressing a party workers meeting here.
''Mr Reddy should realise that none is above law and that law will take its own course. It is not proper on his part to project the CBI action as murder of democracy and gagging of press freedom'', added Mr Rao, Minister incharge of Prakasam district. The onus was on Mr Reddy to explain the source of funds parked in the accounts of these companies, he added.
He wanted the party cadre to expose the ''corrupt YSRC'' and at the same time highlight development and welfare initiatives of the ruling Congress.
Ms Magunta Parvathamma, Congress nominee for the Ongole assembly seat promised to mobilise funds for all round development of Ongole with the proactive support of Mr Rao and 11 other Congress MLAs from the district.
