The political leaders get requests from their supporters on recommendations for various problems, he said adding, it does not mean the recommendations should be considered by the authorities without following the norms.
Even BJP floor leader was able to get licence in his wife's name, Reddy said and asked BJP leaders not to fool people by implicating congress leaders in the issue.
