The ongoing feud between former Vijayawada MP Kesineni Srinivas (commonly known as Kesineni Nani) and his brother, sitting MP Kesineni Shivanath (Chinni), has taken a dramatic turn with new allegations surfacing on social media.
On Monday, Nani publicly released an open letter addressed to Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, accusing his brother Chinni of having clandestine ties with Raj Kasireddy—the prime accused in the alleged liquor scam during the Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy administration.
The letter was posted on Nani’s official accounts on X and Facebook.
In the letter, Nani claimed to possess credible information linking Chinni with Raj Kasireddy and his associate Dileep Paila. He pointed out that Raj Kasireddy is a designated partner in Pryde Infracon LLP, along with Kesineni Shivanath and his wife, Janaki Lakshmi Kesineni. The firm is registered at Plot No. 9, Survey No. 403, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad – 500033.
“This isn’t merely about social proximity—it points to a deliberate, operational nexus. Given that Eshanvi, a firm tied to the scam, is already under investigation and two of its key figures have been arrested, Chinni’s direct business association raises serious questions of political protection and financial complicity,” Nani alleged.
He further claimed that Chinni funneled large sums of unaccounted money into real estate ventures in Hyderabad and offshore firms, including Kesineni International Ltd. in Delaware, USA, and Kesineni Global Enterprises in Dubai, UAE. These entities, Nani suggested, may have been used to launder illicit gains connected to the scam.
Urging Naidu to authorize a high-level, independent inquiry, Nani called for an investigation into Chinni’s alleged nexus with Raj Kasireddy, his real estate acquisitions, suspected benami transactions, possible hawala routes, and use of third-party fronts.

Nani concluded his letter with a stern warning: “The misuse of political power and proximity to key accused individuals at this scale must not be ignored. The fact that a sitting MP is a partner in a company linked to arrested individuals—including the prime accused—warrants an impartial and exhaustive investigation to preserve the integrity of the state and restore public faith in your leadership.”
