The SC also expressed its displeasure over Telangana CM A Revanth Reddy’s statement in the Assembly that there would be no byelections. The court noted that he was expected to exercise “some degree of restraint”; referring to a separate matter, in which it had disapproved Reddy’s comments on the top court while granting bail to rival BRS leader K Kavitha in cases linked to the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.
