Telugu channel claims man with three women in explicit sex video aired yesterday is Governor Narayan Dutt Tiwari

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and former CM N Chandrababu Naidu demanded the resignation of Andhra Pradesh Governor Narayan Dutt Tiwari over an alleged sex scandal involving him.

Naidu said Tiwari should resign or the central government should sack him for bringing shame to the 'sacred office of the governor'.

Naidu also demanded that a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) inquiry be instituted into the scandal, as some MPs were also allegedly involved in the affair.

Foursome

Naidu's demands followed the airing of an explicit footage by ABN Andhra Jyothy channel, a private Telugu channel that shows a man in bed with three young women.

Is it him? N D Tiwari, governor of Andhra Pradesh, was allegedly caught having sex on camera

"Everybody feels ashamed after seeing this on television. This is a big sex scandal. It shows the declining values and ethics in public life.

Offices like Raj Bhavan are the temples of democracy and it is very unfortunate that such things are happening there," said Naidu, the leader of opposition in the state assembly.

HC halts video

After the channel aired the clips for a couple of hours yesterday, the Andhra Pradesh High Court, acting on a public suit, issued an injunction against showing the pictures.

However, the video had by then found its way to YouTube, where thousands viewed it.

The channel quoted Radhika, a woman from Uttarakhand, as saying that she sent the young women to Raj Bhavan on Tiwari's request through his aide.

The woman said she was exposing the governor, as he had failed to provide her an iron ore mining licence in Andhra Pradesh.

Radhika had girls transferred from the A P Bhavan in New Delhi, and upon a visit some time later, had the girls secretly visiting her in the night and crying over her shoulder about how they were being sexually exploited by the governor, his Officer on Special Duty (OSD), and several MPs who were guests of the governor.

Raj Bhavan speaks

Counsel for the Raj Bhavan Ravishanker Jandhyala was quoted late last evening as saying, "The Governor is 86 years old and in the evening of his life.

It is sad and unfortunate that constitutional functionaries are dragged into needless controversies.

There is absolutely no truth in the alleged news story, which is nothing but sensation mongering. The alleged news story is nothing but a tissue of lies and is denied. We will file a defamation case.

Old Scandals

A- In October 2008, ND Tiwari admitted that he had an affair with Delhi housewife and Congress worker Ujwala Sharma, but denied having fathered her son Rohit Shekar (29), who has filed a petition in Delhi High Court against Tiwari, demanding he be accepted as Tiwari's natural son. Shekar in his previous petition requested the High Court to direct Tiwari to go for DNA Test, which Tiwari has strongly resisted. The case is sub-judice. In 2006, popular folk singer Narendra Singh Negi fromu00a0 Uttarakhand had portrayed the then CM Tiwari as a flirtatiousu00a0character surrounded by pretty women in his album Nauchami Narain. The album was widely believed to have had a role in bringing down the Congress government in the state, and putting a BJP government in power.
