Hyderabad, May 7: Responding to BJP national president J.P. Nadda’s allegation of KCR government is most corrupt in India, Minister for IT, Industries and Municipal Administration K. Taraka Rama Rao (KTR) said that Nadda was removed from the Central Cabinet by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he was allegedly involved in scams worth Rs 7,000 crore in the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) when he was Union Health Minister.
