Attachment of house of Naidu aims at diverting people’s attention, says TDP

Describing the issuing of orders by the Andhra Pradesh government to attach the house of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu as a drama, the main opposition party has alleged that the move by the ruling YSR Congres Party (YSRCP) is aimed at ‘diverting the attention of the people from its failures’. 

Addressing the media here on May 14 (Sunday), TDP leader Dhulipala Narendra alleged that the YSRCP government was trying to hush up the facts pertaining to the case.

“There is no truth in the claims made by the government in the order pertaining to attachment of the house. Lingamaneni Ramesh had bought land in Guntur area much before the bifurcation of the State. The Maytas and ACC cements had purchased land decades ago in Guntur, Mangalagiri and other places. Mr. Ramesh had purchased land from those companies in 2011, not after Mr. Naidu became the Chief Minister. The YSRCP was spreading false propaganda and political vendetta,” he said.
