Telugu Desam Party MLAs on Thursday accused the YSR Congress Party of raising the bogey of Amaravati land scam once again to divert people’s attention from their inadequacies.
Addressing the media after being suspended from the Legislative Assembly on the first day of the monsoon session, senior TDP leader and PAC Chairman Payyavula Keshav said the ruling party once again tried to sling mud at the opposition party leaders by “repeating its baseless accusations.”
Referring to the ruling party leaders’ allegation that the TDP leaders bought vast stretches of lands in Amaravati as they knew that the place would become the capital of the bifurcated State, Mr. Keshav asserted that documents would prove that the lands had been bought one and half months after the then Chief Minister announced in the Assembly that the new capital would be located in Amaravati.
