Telugu Desam Party (TDP) legislator Sandra Venkata Veeraiah on Monday appeared before the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) for questioning in the cash-for-vote case.
The TDP legislator reached the ACB office at Banjara Hills after 10 a.m.
The ACB on Saturday issued him a fresh notice to appear before 5 p.m. on July 6.
The ACB summoned him for questioning last month too but he failed to respond. He later sent a letter to the ACB, seeking 10 days' time to appear before it, citing ill-health.
Veeraiah, who represents Sattupalli assembly constituency in Khammam district of Telangana, last week stated that he was ready to appear before the ACB team and that he would fully cooperate with the investigations.
The ACB last month quizzed V. Narender Reddy who was the TDP-BJP candidate in the Telangana legislative council elections.
