The YSR Congress Party (YSRC) has urged the Election Commission to prosecute Telugu Desam Rajya Sabha member Y. Satyanarayana (Sujana) Chowdary on charges of money laundering and attempting to bribe voters.

The party has also sought disqualification of four TDP contestants for Assembly and Parliamentary seats in Seemandhra including N. Balakrishna, Kinjarapu Ramamohan Naidu and Baggu Ramana Murthy and action against sitting Congress MPs – M.M. Pallam Raju and Sabbam Hari – alleging violation of poll code by them.

In a representation to Chief Electoral Officer Bhanwar Lal here on Tuesday, YSRC leader P.N.V. Prasad alleged that Rs. 3 crore amount seized by the police from the office of an educational institution in Vijayawada on Tuesday belonged to Mr. Chowdary.
