Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y.S. Sharmila on March 23 (Saturday) said that the State had provided foodgrains to the country in the past, but today it transformed into drug capital of India.
Reacting sharply to the Brazil cargo with alleged drugs seized at the Visakhapatnam Port by the CBI, Ms. Sharmila slammed the successive ruling parties in the State for allowing things to deteriorate beyond redemption. She alleged that ganja, heroin and cocaine, anything was available in “Udta Andhra Pradesh.”
Raising serious concern over the growing menace of drugs, Ms. Sharmila said, “Lately, it has been found that Andhra Pradesh has a connection to drug cartels busted anywhere in the country.” She blamed the TDP and YSRCP, which ruled the State in the last 10 years, for the sorry state of affairs.
