Kalvakuntla Kavitha, the president of the Telangana Rakshana Sena (TRS), has formally requested the removal of Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar from the Union Council of Ministers. This request comes in light of an ongoing investigation into a case involving allegations against Sanjay's son under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. In her letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Kavitha raised significant concerns regarding 'institutional propriety, legal ethics, and public trust.' She argued that Bandi Sanjay's retention in his ministerial role during the investigation could create a perception of conflict of interest, potentially affecting the neutrality of the investigative process.

She warned that any perception of political or administrative influence over police procedures, evidence collection, or witness protection could severely undermine public confidence in the justice system.
