Without naming the Chief Minister, Ravindra, in reply to a question posed by reporters, claimed that the person damaging the ruling party's hold in the state is in a "higher position".
The Health Minister, known to be a critic of the Chief Minister, has made veiled attacks on him earlier too.
Yesterday, the Health Minister had alleged that the Chief Minister appeared to have a tacit understanding with Kadapa MP Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Without taking the Chief Minister's name, Ravindra asked why he never criticised Jagan despite the Kadapa MP facing various allegations.
Meanwhile, talking to reporters today, state Congress president Botsa Satyanarayana said he had spoken to Ravindra and other leaders and advised them to refrain from making comments that are not in the party's interest
When told that the Health Minister had made critical remarks against the Chief Minister today too, the PCC president said he would verify the matter.
