Former Union Minister Chinta Mohan demanded Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu provides information about the ₹13.5 lakh crore debt accumulated during the previous YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government, along with details of expenditure of the amount in the last five years.
Addressing a press conference here on Saturday, the Congress leader alleged that former Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy had destroyed the economy of Andhra Pradesh and left it debt-ridden. “If Mr. Naidu fails to provide information within a month, I will come up with the details to which I have access,” Mr. Mohan claimed.
The former Minister further demanded Mr. Naidu furnishes details of expenditure on the Polavaram project during the last two decades. “Over ₹40,000 crore had been diverted in the name of Polavaram in two decades, while requirement for another ₹50,000 crores remains,” he said.
He asserted that Mr. Naidu should concentrate with a similar focus on the development of Kuppam and Tirupati as Amaravati and Polavaram projects.
