Amaravati: Free house site programme a goldmine for CM, his MLAs says Nara Lokesh
TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh

Amaravati: TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh on Friday launched a scathing attack on the massive house sites distribution and housing programmes by the Jaganmohan Reddy government in the State.
Lokesh alleged that what looked like a simple one cent land distribution for each poor family has actually turned out to be a goldmine for the Chief Minister, his Ministers and his party MLAs. In the name of free house sites, the YSRCP leaders at all levels opened the floodgates of corruption.
In a Statement here, Lokesh expressed concern that the public money was looted in a wide variety of ways. The YSRCP regime perpetrated a 3-in-1 scam in which the ruling party MLAs indulged in fraud in first acquisition of lands for free house sites, then in levelling of those lands and then in extorting money from the poor families during distribution. This massive 3-in-1 fraud involved open looting of over Rs 6,500 crore of public funds.
Lokesh warned the Jagan regime that it would not be able to totally wipe out the TDP cycle brand that was permanently there because of the high-quality houses constructed in the previous regime. The ruling party is wastefully painting its party blue colour on those houses now but the people know very well whose hard work was behind the construction of those strong houses, Lokesh said.
Stating that the house sites were now being given in uninhabitable places, Lokesh asked why the government so thoughtlessly selected hillocks, burial grounds, tanks, low-lying areas, etc for distribution to the poor. This was enough to say that CM Jagan had no commitment or credibility in rendering genuine service to the people.
There is no way the poor families could either construct their houses or live in such inhospitable locations.
Lokesh further asserted that there is a clear evidence to prove largescale corruption in the 3-in-1 house sites scams. In his monstrous fraud, over 41 YSRCP MLAs would be sure to go to jail under the 'Jaganannna Jail Yatra' scheme in future.
Till now, CM Jagan indulged in casting aspersion stating that he was not able to give house sites because of the court cases being allegedly filed by the TDP.
The Chief Minister should now explain how his regime was able to give lakhs of house sites when there were the court hurdles in this. Because of these blatant lies and falsehoods that Jagan was being called a fake CM everywhere.
