Congress intensified its attack on Union Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar over the POCSO case involving his son, Bandi Sai Bhagirath, demanding that he resign from his ministerial post until the investigation is completed.

Addressing the media at Gandhi Bhavan, TPCC Media Committee chairman Sama Ram Mohan said the Congress appreciated Mr. Sanjay’s claims of sincerity and transparency, but asserted that he must prove his “good faith” by ensuring that his son cooperates fully with the police investigation.

“If there is genuine honesty, Bandi Sanjay should hand over his absconding son to the police and prove his integrity,” he said. He added that if no wrongdoing had occurred, there should be no fear in surrendering before the police and cooperating with the investigation.

The Congress leader alleged that attempts were being made to evade the legal process and stated that no one, irrespective of status or political influence, would be spared if found guilty under the law.
