# Supreme Court orders fresh hearing in Revanth Reddy cash-for-vote case 2026-08-14T05:58:18+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Supreme Court on Thursday ordered a fresh hearing in the 2015 cash-for-vote case involving Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy. A bench headed by Chief Justice Surya Kant said the matter could not continue from the stage at which it had been left because the judges who had earlier heard it have since retired. The court adjourned the case and said a new date would be fixed for re-hearing. The case dates back to May 2015, when the Anti-Corruption Bureau caught Reddy, then a TDP MLA, allegedly offering a bribe to nominated MLA Elvis Stephenson to secure his vote for a TDP candidate in the Legislative Council elections. Reddy was arrested and later granted conditional bail. Petitions filed by Reddy and Sandra Venkata Veeraiah challenging the ACB investigation were joined by BRS leaders. ## Coverage - siasat.com Tags: ACB, cash-for-vote, Revanth Reddy, Supreme Court, TDP, Telangana Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/supreme-court-orders-fresh-hearing-in-revanth-reddy-cash-for-vote-case/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
