Jana Sena corporator Peethala Murthy Yadav has complained to Minister Nara Lokesh about the irregularities and corruption in Visakha Dairy. He said that Visakha Dairy, which has a turnover of Rs. 2000 crores, is in losses today and has fallen into debt for the first time due to the mismanagement of its Chairman Adari Anand and his family.
He alleged they have occupied 7.96 acres of government land in Chingadili survey number 13,21,26. According to him its market value will be about Rs. 500 crore. He accused that crores of rupees of Dairy funds have been looted by the present managing committee.
Lamenting that the Dairy’s precious resources were diverted for the YCP activities, he said that Visakha Dairy buttermilk packets were distributed to the preparatory meetings of the party and YSRCP milked the dairy money.
Moreover, he disclosed that 50 acres of land has been bought in the name of Visakha Dairy in Warn village of Merakamudidam mandal. He said that Rs 86,000 was collected from each of them to build a house for Visakha dairy employees. He alleged that in the name of its employees they purchased three acres of land at
Narava with that money.
But, strangely, he said that 90 cents of the land in that three acres was given to Adari family members at free of cost. He said that the assets of Visakha Dairy were stolen from the directors and the Adari family robbed the dairy farmers of their hard work and spent it on luxuries.
Murthy Yadav urged minister Nara Lokesh to conduct a comprehensive probe into irregularities in Visakha Dairy and also corrupt practices of Adari family, so as to take suitable action against the culprit. He also demanded that the governing body of the organization should be dissolved immediately.
The Jana Sena leader lamented that Visakha Dairy, which has been making profits for many years, has been criticized for going into losses for the first time. He expressed fear that in a few days it may be pushed into a miserable condition of unable to pay salaries to its employees properly.
