The true facets of several illegal cases filed by AP CID during YS Jaganmohan Reddy regime against present chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu and other key leaders of TDP are being exposed with the change of regime.
In the Amaravati Assigned Lands case and Inner Ring Road case, in which besides Chandrababu Naidu, minister Dr P Narayana and others were shown as co-accused, several IAS officers were said to be under intense pressure to give false evidence against key TDP leaders.
In order to establish that Chandrababu and others resorted to corruption and other malpractices when they were in power, theSpecial Investigation Team (SIT) headed by notorious IPS officer Raghurama Reddy made futile attempts. He acted in the most inhumane manner in the name of investigating the senior IAS officers. Humiliated them and made them mentally depressed.
The classic case of how they humiliated the then CRDA Commissioner Cherukuri Sridhar and the employees of the consultancy firm who worked on the IRR were seriously threatened to give a statement against Chandrababu and Narayan exposed evil attempts of Jagan’s regime.
The SIT committed conspiratorial moves with Sridhar, who played a key role in land acquisition as Joint Collector of Guntur at that time and later worked as Commissioner of CRDA, with the aim of giving false testimony against Chandrababu and Narayana. To put pressure on him from all sides, a case of theft was filed that he had stolen the revenue records of the capital’s villages when he was the JC of Guntur.
A retired tahsildar named Venkateshwarlu gave a statement against Sridhar. It was mentioned that a fourth class employee working at the collectorate saw JC taking the records in the car. Four or five VROs working in Capital region villages were threatened and took their statements by threatening them and taking away the records.
Actually all the records are in the respective villages. As a precautionary measure their copies have been preserved in the Collectorate. Moreover, all the records are available online.
