Hyderabad, June 4 -- Bharat Rashtra Samithu (BRS) working president KT Rama Rao on Thursday, June 4, met former MLA Balka Suman at Chanchalguda jail and accused the Telangana government of selective action against Opposition leaders, saying he would write to Union Coal Minister G Kishan Reddy over an alleged coal scam in the state.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, KTR demanded to know why no action had been taken against Congress leaders Mynampally Hanumanth Rao and Anirudh Reddy, whom he accused of threatening to kill BRS leaders.

"Mynampally Hanumanth Rao and Anirudh Reddy threatened to kill our leader by pouring petrol. No action was taken against them, but Balka Suman was sent to jail," he said.

Suman was arrested on May 30...
