Political Diary

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah today maintained that the investigations into the September 2 helicopter crash, in which late Chief Minister Y S Rajaekhara Reddy and four others died, were ’not parallel or contradictory in nature’. He told reporters here the different agencies entrusted with the investigation would look into different aspects of the mishap. The findings of one organisation would also be passed on to other organisations for better understanding of the reasons for the crash, he said. The state government had urged the Centre to order a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation as it was the appropriate agency to deal with such a mishap. It was only to remove doubts among public on various aspects of the crash that the state government had also constituted a two-member expert team to look into all aspects of the crash
