Is there any link to the emergency meeting that KCR called the other day at his farmhouse and the incessant IT raids on the infra firms that are working in the Kaleshwaram project? Significantly, the emergency meeting of the ministers was held barely hours after the raids began.
The raids were conducted on the KNR Infra at the 12 locations, including in Delhi, Warangal, Vijayawada and Hyderabad. At least five teams of officials have conducted the raids. The raids have been going on for the last five days. In the past too, there were raids on Infra companies like the C 5 and MEIL. All these are involved in Kaleshwaram.

Quite interestingly, the raids in Hyderabad were conducted by the officials who belong to the other states. The Ayakar Bhavan of Hyderabad had no inkling of the raids, sources say. Even the local Ayakar Bhavan officials were surprised when the news of the raids flashed on TV screens.

Meanwhile, the BJP has alleged that the Kaleshwaram project has become an ATM for the ruling TRS. It said that there was large-scale corruption in the project and that KCR's family was the direct beneficiary. Interestingly, hours after the raids began, CM has called for an emergency meeting. BJP sources say that KCR went into a huddle only because he was mortified by the raids.
