Skill development thrived under Chandrababu's leadership, with Siemens contributing hardware and software services valued at 3,356 crore rupees across six clusters. The Central Institute of Tool Design (CITD), operating under the Central Government, substantiates this achievement in their evaluation report. However, Chandrababu faced government scrutiny, with the CID filing a misappropriation of funds case against him. The CITD report validates skill training's authenticity. In March 2016, Premachandra Reddy, the Principal Secretary of the Skill Development Department, requested CITD to assess Siemens project equipment. Although this was known to government officials, it wasn't widely discussed. The CID involved in the case is aware of this. Questions arise about funds' outflow through the corporation, as officials claim. Designtech Systems pledges transparency and receipt details at the centers but faces criticism for their stance.
