Jana Sena Party’s (JSP) political affairs committee chairman Nadendla Manohar alleged on November 16 that massive irregularities had taken place in the construction of houses for the poor in the Jagannanna colonies and an expenditure of ₹35,141 crore was not properly accounted for.
Mr. Manohar demanded that the government reveal the colony-wise details of land acquired, while alleging that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders were involved in the scam.
Addressing the media at the party office near Mangalagiri in Guntur district, Mr. Manohar said the government had even misled the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) about the money spent by it on land acquisition, which amounted to a staggering ₹56,102 crore.
