YS Sharmila Targets Corruption Allegations Against YCP
YS Sharmila Fierce Attack on YCP Corruption
YS Sharmila, the Andhra Pradesh Congress chief, is becoming a significant challenge for her brother, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, and his Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YCP). In the wake of the arrest of V.G. Venkat Reddy, the former Director of Mines and Geology (DMG) and in-charge Managing Director (MD) of the A.P. Mineral Development Corporation (APMDC), Sharmila has launched a direct attack on the alleged corruption within the YCP ranks.
“Catch the Man Hiding in the Palace” – YS Sharmila Bold Allegation
Speaking on the mining scam, Sharmila hinted at a more extensive network of corruption beyond Venkat Reddy. She stated, “If Venkat Reddy has illegally amassed ₹2,566 crore, imagine the scale of corruption by the man behind him. The ACB caught only a small fish, while the whale is hiding in a palace. Wherever he is hiding, he should be traced and investigated.”
Calls for a CBI Probe Into the Mining Scam
The Congress leader raised the stakes by demanding a CBI investigation into the alleged illegalities in Andhra Pradesh’s mining sector. She urged the central government to intervene, stating, “I demand the NDA government in Andhra Pradesh to seek CBI assistance to investigate the looting of natural resources and catch the big fish behind these scams.” Sharmila’s accusations come amid growing controversies surrounding YCP, causing restlessness within the party.
Growing Political Tension in Andhra Pradesh
With scam allegations mounting, YS Sharmila’s continued criticism of the YCP is adding to the political turbulence in Andhra Pradesh. Her strong statements, along with her demands for an impartial investigation, have intensified the tension between her and YS Jagan, raising questions about the internal conflicts within the political landscape of the state.
Conclusion
YS Sharmila’s aggressive stance against the YCP, her call for transparency, and her demands for a CBI investigation into the state’s mining sector signal a significant political challenge. As the YCP grapples with these allegations, Sharmila’s consistent focus on the issue is sure to keep the spotlight on the alleged corruption within the ruling party.
