Jana Sena Party has levelled severe allegations against Chief Secretary KS Jawahar Reddy of grabbind assigned lands in a big scale in Northern Andhra. Jana Sena senior leader and Municipal Corporator at Visakhapatnam Peethala Murthy Yadav has accused Reddy of grabbing assigned lands worth Rs 2,000 crore in Northern Andhra.
He said that Jawahar Reddy had issued GO No. 596 intended for land transfer in which allegedly a deal was made for more than 800 acres, after he became Chief Secretary. During the election period, he lamented that instead of focusing his attention to ensure free and fair elections, he had been concentrating on land deals in Northern Andhra.
Few days back during an unscheduled visit to settle some land deals, Murthy Yadav alleged that he had conducted a review on Bhogapuram AirPort issues, without monitoring election related violence and other disturbances around Visakhapatnam.
According to him, Jawahar Reddy has been accused of having started massive land encroachments, taking over 400 acres of SC and BC assigned lands in the name of benami transactions and occupying hundreds of acres around the Bhogapuram Airport.
Jana Sena leader also said that Chief Secretary has been fielding his son to settle land deals in Visakhapatnam and Vizianagaram district. He alleged that settling deals at the rate of R 5 lakh per acre, while the market price likely to be over Rs 2 crore.
Fearing that YCP government may not return in the state, Yadav said that the Chief Secretary is hurriedly concentrating on land transactions ignoring administration.
Yadav urged the Election Commission to intervene so as to stop illegal and irregular land registration in this area and order for cancellation of such registration. Done from March onwards. He demanded that a CBI probe should be conducted on land encroachments by YCP leaders and Senior officials.
