In what can be a political witch-hunt, IT raids have been initiated against TDP's crucial leader and Rajya Sabha MP CM Ramesh. Income Tax sleuths have been raiding on Ramesh's residence and properties in multiple locations across AP and Telangana.

Raids are being conducted at Ramesh's own house in his native place in Potladurthi of Erraguntla Mandal in Kadapa district. Raids are also being done at his residence in Hyderabad.

However, CM Ramesh is not available at the moment. As per reprots, Ramesh is presently in Delhi. It's learnt that 60 IT officials have participated in this large IT raids.

Meanwhile, Enforcement Directorate has raided the house and properties of former Union Minister Sujana Chowdary aka YS Chowdary yesterday. With raids being conducted on TDP's two crucial leaders within a gap of a day by two national investigating agencies, speculations are rife whether the raids are politically motivated or just a meagre coincidence. At the moment, tension is prevailing among TDP leaders as they've been specifically targeted. Earlier, IT raids were done on TDP's Nellore leaders Beeda Masthan Rao and Beeda Ravi Chandra's businesses.
