Several installations of the Reliance group across Andhra Pradesh were attacked late on Thursday night after a Telugu television channel aired a report alleging a high-level conspiracy behind Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy’s death in a helicopter crash on September 2.
It was based on a report on a Russian website, The Exiled, which alleged that YSR was the victim of a plot centring around offshore gas reserves in the Krishna-Godavari basin. Reliance Industries Limited owned by Mukesh Ambani is operating these gas fields off the Kakinada coast.
YSR’s son and Congress MP Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, in a statement, expressed shock at the report and said he would mount pressure on the Centre to investigate the conspiracy angle.
He appealed to people to maintain calm, saying destruction of property was not a solution.
