Lokesh challenges YSRCP chief to declare assets 

Amaravati: Minister for IT and Panchayat Raj challenged the Leader of Opposition and YSRCP president YS Jaganmohan Reddy to declare his assets every year. Reacting to the corruption allegations levelled by the opposition parties against him and his family members, Lokesh said that he was announcing his assets publicly every year, in a press release on Wednesday.

Lokesh also tweeted on his Twitter account saying, “Dear Oppn Leader, there is a difference between the surnames Nara & YS. While development of the State is our plank, you’ve made the plank of corruption your own. Remember that we are the only political family declaring assets every year. Do you have the guts to follow us?”

He explained that the Heritage Company was developed by his mother and his wife by investing their precious time and skills. The Minister said, “Don’t take away the credit of building Heritage from my mother and Brahmani who have put in their sweat since the past 25 years. Your father filed 20+ cases against us, & failed to prove anything because we have conducted business with ethics. Why don’t you learn from it?”
