YSRCP faults CAG report on land allotment

                                                                        

“Here the CAG has given a report on land allotments, besides other issues, for the past five years and the timing of its release are raising many questions,” she remarked.

She pointed out that during Chandrababu Naidu's regime, the CAG had passed many adverse and stinging remarks but he made light of them.

She said when the same CAG had passed some remarks on land allotments, which are being disputed in the court and the CBI was inquiring into the issue, Mr. Naidu suddenly realised that CAG was an authentic agency and wanted its report to be followed in the letter and spirit.

The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) on Friday took strong objection to the way in which the CAG annual report for the year ending March 31 last year has included the land allotments during 2006-11, ahead of Central Bureau of Investigations filing a charge sheet in the controversial 26 Government Orders case.

At a press conference here, party spokesperson Vasireddy Padma said it was annual ritual for the CAG to submit its report, which is circulated on the last day of the budget session pin pointing lapses the State has committed during the year.

Meanwhile, Minister for School Education S. Sailajanath said if the allottees did not utilise the land allotted to them, the government would examine the issue and resume the same.

Former Minister Gade Venkat Reddy said the CAG had to explain why it had given the five year report on land allotments.
