YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) MP Nandigam Suresh has alleged that the Amaravati agitation was being organised only to save the interests of real estate dealers.
Addressing the media at the YSRCP office at Tadepalli near here on Sunday, Mr. Suresh said that Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu was responsible for the plight of farmers.
“Mr. Naidu had destroyed the agricultural fields for his vested interests. The lands were forcibly taken by the previous TDP government to develop the capital region. Many committees and experts opined that the decision to pool that agricultural lands in Amaravati region would lead to food scarcity, but Mr. Naidu went ahead with his plans. He constructed a temporary Secretariat as permission was not possible in that region. The sole objective was to push the real estate there,” he alleged.
