Kiran govt salvo is against Jagan

D J Ravindra Reddy, the state health minister who is pitted against Jagan in the Kadapa by-polls, said in Kadapa that both the industries were doing “zero business” by not paying royalty to the government. “Hence criminal cases were booked on them,” Ravindra Reddy said.

“I will legally proceed against Gali Janardhana Reddy, as Brahmani steels took loan from certain banks by mortgaging the land allotted to him for setting up the steel factory,” the minister announced. The Congress strategy seems to designed to rouse unemployed youth against Jagan, as Janardhana Reddy has promised thousands of jobs to Kadapa youth in return for the land given to Brahmani.

Speaking to reporters in Tirumala on Monday, Janardhana Reddy denied that the land given to Brahmani was mortgaged. He told reporters that he will “start the steel plant much to the disappointment of the present Congress government in the state.”
