Vijaysai Reddy appears before ED:
He was arrested in July 2025 by the AP SIT and is currently out on bail. His appearance before ED comes after former YCP MP Vijaysai Reddy was questioned by the agency on Thursday, January 22.
Vijaysai Reddy has been named as an accused in the FIR filed by the AP SIT and it has been alleged in the complaint that illegal funds have been passed through him to the former chief minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Speaking to the media after ED investigation, Vijaysai Reddy said that he was sidelined in the party from 2020 and alleged that a malicious coterie planted insecurity in Jagan Reddy and he believed the malicious forces.
"There is no ‘No.2’ in regional parties, even Jagan Reddy has said this repeatedly. When in power, I was never accepted as No.2. Today, the same coterie brands me as one. In some cases, I’m No.2. In benefits, I’m pushed beyond 100. That’s the truth,” he said.
Jagan to undertake Padayatra:
Meanwhile, former AP CM YA Jagan Mohan Reddy will reportedly undertake a padayatra in a year’s time and has emphasised alleged rampant corruption under TDP.
