Harish Highlights Corruption in Congress Government
In a scathing press meeting held at the BJP Nampally office, BJP MLA Palvai Harish criticized the Congress government’s rampant corruption within seven months of its formation. He highlighted multiple instances of corruption involving key Congress leaders and ministers.
Accusations Against Kalyana Lakshmi Scheme
Harish pointed out a significant issue in the Kalyana Lakshmi scheme: despite paying Rs. 7,500, beneficiaries have not received their cheques. He mainly targeted Vemulawada MLA and government whip Aadi Srinivas, demanding an inquiry into the incidents in his constituency.
Chief Minister’s Brother’s Involvement
He alleged that the Chief Minister’s brother is camped at the Secretariat till late hours, involved in money extortion activities. Harish stressed that the entire Congress leadership, from the grassroots to the top levels, is deeply mired in corruption.
Ministers’ Money Collection Drive
The BJP leader accused Congress ministers of relentlessly collecting money for every project and scheme. He criticized Congress for prioritizing personal gains over public welfare.
Corruption Across All Levels
Harish’s speech was a stern indictment of Congress leaders’ corruption, emphasizing that the corruption extended from the local to the higher echelons of the party. He accused the Congress of being immersed in corruption at every level.
Administrative Collapse
He highlighted the administrative collapse under the Congress regime, describing it as everyone minding their business, akin to “everyone for themselves.” The BJP MLA pointed out the dire condition of rural, panchayat raj, roads, and buildings departments, where roads are dilapidated, and contractors are reluctant to undertake projects due to non-payment of bills.
Economic Crisis in the State
Harish did not mince words when he described the state’s financial situation as dire and bankrupt, calling for the declaration of a financial emergency. He accused the Congress government of pushing the state to the brink of economic collapse due to rampant corruption and mismanagement.
Assurance of Accountability
Concluding his press meeting, Harish assured that the BJP would bring the Congress government’s corruption and financial mismanagement to light in the Assembly. He vowed to hold the government accountable and expose its misdeeds.
Harish’s bold statements have put the Congress government on the defensive, highlighting the urgent need for transparency and accountability in governance. The BJP’s commitment to addressing these issues aims to bring about significant changes in the state’s administration.
