Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy appeared before the Public Representatives Court in Nampally on Thursday in connection with a 2021 case alleging violation of COVID-19 guidelines during the Nagarjuna Sagar Assembly by-election campaign. The case was registered after he allegedly campaigned in Chalakurti village without wearing a mask or following other pandemic-related restrictions. The court recorded his statement under Section 313 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
Revanth Reddy has faced several cases linked to alleged violations during election campaigns and public meetings under the previous government. He had also appeared before the court in February 2026 in connection with seven such cases. However, the Telangana High Court had earlier quashed a separate case against him over alleged Model Code of Conduct violations during the 2019 Huzurnagar by-election, observing that the chargesheet lacked evidence of intentional disobedience.
