New Delhi, February 21

The CBI has summoned former Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao’s daughter and BRS legislator K Kavitha in connection with the Delhi excise policy scam case next week, officials said on Wednesday.

They added that Kavitha has been asked to appear before the investigation team at the CBI headquarters here on Monday.

The agency had earlier recorded her statement in December 2022 at her residence in Hyderabad, they said.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has alleged that one of the accused in the case Vijay Nair received kickbacks to the tune of at least Rs 100 crore from a group called South Group, controlled by Sarath Reddy, Kavitha and Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, on behalf of AAP leaders.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
