YS Jaganmohan Reddy is the YSR Congress chief in Andhra Pradesh
YSR Congress chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, facing corruption charges, today filed two pleas before a special court in Hyderabad seeking further relaxation on his bail conditions to allow him to visit other states and also without having to inform the CBI on his tour itinerary.
The applications seeking to leave Andhra Pradesh without having to inform the CBI and to proceed to other states, filed by Mr Reddy's counsel will come up for hearing on Thursday.
Mr Reddy, who was arrested in May last year, got bail in the corruption case in late September this year, with the court asking the Kadapa MP not to leave the state capital without its permission.
However, the court on October 30 had acceded to Mr Reddy's plea for relaxing the bail conditions to enable him to visit different parts of Andhra Pradesh and Delhi after informing the court two days before leaving Hyderabad.
In the application submitted, the reason given is that being an MP and leader of a political party, the YSR Congress chief has to meet members of public (in view of the prevailing situation in the state in the wake of announcement to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh) and travel frequently.
