Andhra: YSRCP demands probe into Rs 5,500 cr alleged scam

Vijayawada, Apr 23 (UNI) Former Minister Chelluboyina Srinivasa Venugopalakrishna on Wednesday accused Andhra Pradesh's Chandrababu Naidu government of "brazenly fostering a liquor mafia" while "orchestrating a campaign of false allegations" against the "transparent" liquor policy of the preceding YSRCP regime.
Speaking at a press conference in Rajamahendravaram, he lashed out against Naidu, charging him with shielding his "own history of corruption in the liquor trade" by "fabricating" cases against the YSRCP’s governance. There is a calculated effort by the coalition to divert public attention from its "illicit profiteering" through the liquor industry.
The leader pointed to a CID case from the YSRCP tenure that named Naidu as the third accused in a liquor scam, as he facilitated undue benefits for three distilleries through a quid pro quo arrangement.
