Jana Sena Party (JSP) Political Affairs Committee chairman Nadendla Manohar has demanded that a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or the Enforcement Directorate (ED) be instituted into the alleged corruption in the ‘Jagananna Paala Velluva’ scheme.
“Our party stands by the allegation that corruption has taken place in the scheme to the tune of ₹2,887 crore. Even some bankers who funded the project have flagged it,” Mr. Manohar said while addressing the media at the party office, near Mangalagiri, on November 8 (Wednesday).
Mr. Manohar said the JSP had proof of the fraud, and it was prepared for a field visit along with whoever dared to counter the charges.
