CBI On Lookout For EMAAR Director

Subsequent to the CBI declaring that they would make arrests if the accused in Jagan and Emaar cases do not cooperate in the investigation, one of the accused in Emaar case is said to have fled the country. The CBI authorities on Thursday are believed to have sealed the residence of Emaar director T Ranga Rao located in Banjara Hills.

Ranga Rao appeared before the CBI sleuths during their preliminary probe but by the time they could obtain search warrants after the comprehensive probe was ordered by the AP High Court, he fled the country and is reported to be in the US. "His house was found locked a few days ago. All the notices sent to him were also returned because no one was available at the residence. Unable to search his premises, the CBI on Thursday sealed the premises and pasted a notice on the main door of the house asking Ranga Rao to appear before the agency whenever he returns," said the sources.

The CBI has reportedly sought extension of time from the CBI special court to execute the search warrant in the hope that Ranga Rao returns to Hyderabad soon. If Ranga Rao fails to comply with the notice even belatedly, then the last option for the probe agency is to obtain the court's permission to break open the doors of the house in the presence of the revenue authorities for carrying out the search. In addition to this, the CBI has already obtained warrants to search the houses of APIIC's former advisor Parthasarathy Rao, former chairman Ambati Rambabu, former managing director B P Acharya and others.

Modi Is Not Our PM: Owaisi

MIM is a recognized state political party based in the Indian state of Telangana, with its head office in the old city of Hyderabad, which has its roots in the Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen founded in 1927. Unlike most of the regional and national level parties, MIM party leaders ‘fight’ only for the well-being of Muslims, whereas no other party has such communal feelings. In their each and every speech, MIM leaders speak only about Muslims. If these leaders are here to fight for Muslims, then why there are no development works are happening in old city area for decades. Akbaruddin Owaisi faced criticism for making hate remarks on Narendra Modi and Hindus. Recently, his elder brother Asaduddin Owaisi made some notorious annotations. In a one-on-one debate between BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi on the topic of demonetization in a popular Hindi channel, the former left no stone unturned in exposing the latter’s communal designs. Owaisi claimed how most of the Muslim community still remains unbanked and that demonetization has caused severe inconvenience to Muslims. He even went on to say that ATM’s in Muslim-dominated areas weren’t fed enough money. He indirectly alleged that the Modi government hadn’t done anything for Muslims. Even after being pressurized Owaisi didn’t call Narendra Modi as his Prime Minister. He went on said, “Your Prime Minister…” On the other hand, Sambit spoke wisely and called Owaisi a leader of small stature because he talked only of Muslims. He said that no area was Muslim or Hindu and that all areas belonged to India. Owaisi was constantly quoting an RBI report, to which Sambit challenged him to show where the RBI had used the word ‘Muslim’. Sambit even said that if a Muslim leader speaks of Muslims it’s not an issue, but the moment a VHP leader speaks of Hindus people go crazy accusing them of imposing the Hindutva ideology. The most amazing of his counters was to Owaisi’s claims of Muslims not having been brought into the banking system. Sambit said that when banks or ATMs are to be opened in Muslim areas leaders like Owaisi shout that banking is un-Islamic and that Muslims should refrain from it! This video of debate between Sambit Patra and Asaduddin Owaisi is going viral in social media.
