The looting of thousands of crores of rupees of public money by TDP government in Andhra Pradesh headed by Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has reached alarming levels.
Not only Opposition parties and civil organisations, even senior officers, who have put in decades of service at higher positions are now coming out to expose the 'public money looting' by Naidu & Co.
The latest to join the list is senior IAS officer Ajeya Kallam, who worked as Chief Secretary of AP and retired from the service in March 2017.
Kallam said Naidu has developed AP as No.1 state in corruption.
Kallam said all the welfare schemes and development programmes being introduced by Naidu are designed in such a manner that all the TDP leaders, officers and employees in various government departments get 'appropriate commissions'.
Citing a classic example of public money looting by Naidu, Kallam said as senior officials in AP government, they had estimated the cost of constructing 17 irrigation projects barring Polavaram at Rs 17,000 crore but Naidu escalated the cost by three times to Rs 51,000 crore.
Kallam asked why none of the projects could be completed even after cost was escalated.
"This public money went into the pockets of TDP leaders, contractors, few officers and employees in AP government," he alleged.
Even in housing scheme for poor, Naidu devised the scheme in such a manner to loot Rs 18,250 crore public money while showing the cost at Rs 36,500 crore.
Naidu decided to spend Rs 1,000 more per sq.feet when compared with rate in Telangana and gave contracts to contractors to construct 10 lakh houses for higher price.
Few more senior IAS officers are expected to come out in the open soon to expose Naidu's public money looting unable to bear the huge corruption of TDP government.
