Chandrababu gave away 498 acres of land to Balakrishna's relative at low cost: YSRCP

Hyderabad, Nov 23: YSR Congress has demanded an open debate on the irregularities in the land allotment by TDP Government. "The Chandrababu Naidu government has allotted large tracks of land across the state to a favoured few at throwaway price and has issued over 700 confidential GOs which is unprecedented. We demand that the Government should come for an open debate or convene assembly session to discuss this issue," party MLA G Srikanth Reddy told media here today. While TDP has been boasting of transparency it has issued a whopping 700 confidential GOs, which makes the claim of the Government questionable. "It has allotted 50 acres of land in north coastal Andhra, which cost Rs 10 crore per acre, at a throwaway price of Rs 50 lakh per acre and in the capital area region it has given about 490 acres of land to a relative of N Balakrishna at Rs 1 lakh per acre, while the actual price is Rs 50 lakh. In Rayalseema region as well the government has allotted 22 acres of land at Rs 22 lakh per acre, while the actual cost is Rs 4 crore per acre. The nepotism is out in the open and we demand an open debate on the issue," he said.
