A viral video has sparked controversy in Telangana involving Ibrahimpatnam MLA Ranga Reddy. In the footage, the 70-year-old legislator is seen engaging in a conversation with two female students while traveling on a bus operating under the state government’s 'Mahalakshmi' free travel scheme for women.
The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), the primary opposition party in the state, has publicly accused the MLA of touching the students inappropriately during the interaction. The video has drawn significant attention on social media platforms, leading to calls for an investigation into the nature of the MLA's conduct.
