Vijayawada/IBNS: Telangana minister Konda Surekha has claimed Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader KT Rama Rao is behind the "disappearance" of his party boss K Chandrasekhar Rao, days after dragging popular actors Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya to her political statement, media reports said.

Addressing a crowd at KCR's constituency Gajwel, Surekha has also urged her party (Congress) workers to file a missing complaint against the former Telangana Chief Minister.

Earlier, Surekha had alleged KTR tapped several actresses' phones and used their weaknesses to blackmail them.

KTR's phone tapping and blackmailing were the reason behind the divorce of former couple Samantha and Naga Chaitanya, the minister had alleged.

Surekha said he was the reason why many actresses left the film industry and married early. KTR, she claimed, blackmailed film personalities after getting them addicted to drugs.

She also said that she suspected the BRS leader was behind a series of offensive posts against her.

Her comments had drawn massive outrage not just from Samantha and Naga Chaitanya but also the Telugu film industry members who clearly stated they won't tolerate this.

Facing massive public ire, Surekha apologised to the actor but did not spare KTR.

"There is no question of leaving KTR, he must apologize to me," she said.
