Naidu brought jobs, Jagan brought drugs: Nagul Meera

Mangalagiri: TDP official spokesman Nagul Meera on Monday accused the ruling YSRCP leaders of turning Andhra Pradesh into a 'hub of drug smuggling' instead of fulfilling their promise to create jobs and resolve problems of all sections of AP people.

He termed it as unfortunate that the Jagan Mohan Reddy regime had betrayed the youth by spoiling their job opportunities and also by pushing them into drug abuse and addiction.

Addressing a press conference here, the TDP leader said that the residents of Vijayawada city were shocked and shaken at the news of over Rs 96,000 crore worth heroin seized in the name of a company located in the heart of their city.

He described it as deplorable that the National Investigation Agency came all the way to Vijayawada to unearth the roots of drug smuggling racket.

Despite this, the AP DGP was saying that the State had no relations with drug smuggling. The TDP leader said that while thousands of crores of investments came to AP under the Chandrababu rule, over

Rs 96,000 crore worth drugs came to the State under the Jagan Reddy regime.

Nagul Meera deplored that the YSRCP MPs, MLAs and all the leaders were following in the footsteps of Jagan Mohan Reddy.

He demanded the YSRCP government to voluntarily order a CBI inquiry into the ganja and drug smuggling activities.
