"He has not received any notice..." claims BRS' KT Rama Rao after Delhi Police summons to CM Revanth Reddy

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], May 1 : Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) has accused Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of spreading fake news and misleading the public after Delhi Police issued a summon to him over an alleged fake video involving Union Home Minister Amit Shah claming that he has not received any notice.
"If the CM of Telangana himself is working in spreading fake news, while he has not received any notice, his name is not even there. But he is busy spreading rumours that he has received a notice and Union Home Minister Amit Shah is attacking him," KTR said while talking to ANI on Tuesday.
"He is trying to mislead the people by creating a false narrative. This means that Revanth Reddy is desperate and can lie for the sake of show-off. Despite having complete information, today he is trying to mislead the people of Telangana. Revanth Reddy should apologize to the people of Telangana," KTR urged CM Revanth Reddy to apologize for spreading rumours.
Earlier, the Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) unit of Delhi Police issued summons to 16 individuals across 7 to 8 states in connection with the circulation of a 'doctored' video featuring Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
According to police sources, those summoned include six members of the ruling Congress in Telangana, including Chief Minister Revanth Reddy. They, along with other persons from several states, were asked to appear for questioning on May 1 at the IFSO unit in Delhi's Dwarka.
In the alleged 'fake' video, the Union Home Minster is purportedly heard saying that the BJP stands against the reservations in the country. However, the BJP has since flagged the viral clip as fake.

CrPC Section 160 allows police to summon a person for investigation, while Section 91 allows police to seek specific documents or gadgets to be presented as evidence.

All those summoned were asked to bring their mobile phones and laptops along with them.

We will ensure that the SCs, STs and OBCs get quotas as guaranteed under the Constitution."CM Reddy was asked to appear before Delhi Police's IFSO unit (Cyber Unit) on May 1 along with his mobile phone.
