Chandrababu Naidu is a No.1 Corruption King of Andhra - EtG
Chandrababu Naidu’s four and half years (2014–2018) rule in Andhra Pradesh is marked by corruption, incompetence, untruthfulness, and undemocratic attitude. Thanks to Naidu’s active support, corruption and extortion have peaked and reached colossal levels; so much so that even sand reaches and temple lands are not being spared. The only area in which Chandrababu Naidu has managed to achieve rapid growth is high volume corruption. His rule is replete with bribes, commissions, cuts, kickbacks, and all imaginable forms of wheeling and dealing. Indeed, Mr. Naidu has amassed more illicit wealth in past four and half years than all his previous ministerial stints put together.
62,736 Acre land grabbed by TDP leaders across the state
Nara Chandrababu Naidu is the №1 Corruption King of Andra. TDP leaders grabbed 62,736 acres of land across the state in the 2014 to 2018 period. The value of these lands would be not less than Rs. 58,933 crore as per prevailing market rates. Beginning with the party workers and going up as high as the benamis of the Ex. chief minister, land grabbing has become the norm. With the objective of buyout the upcoming elections by pumping massive amounts of funds, land grabbing began with the new capital, Amaravati, has now extended to all districts.
This land grabbing activity does not exclude any land let it be Temple lands or Graveyards or Lakes, and not to speak the assigned lands of Dalits. Lands grabbed in this manner were pledged in banks to obtain crores of rupees as loans. Additionally, lands were grabbed in Amaravati new capital region through insider trading and in Visakhapatnam by tampering with records. Here are the details of district-wise land grabbing by the ruling party leaders.

Rs. 400 Crore Franklin Templeton Scam

Initially, the land was given on lease, but it was later changed into an outright sale
The AP Govt. refused to pay heed to the advice of APIIC, which asked the government to allocate 10 acres at Rs. 2.70 crore per acre.

Chandrababu government Targets the assigned lands
Corruption king of Chandrababu government has made the assigned lands of the poor an important target
The government sets to collect 20,603 acres assigned lands for industrial purposes
The TDP has defaulted on this poll promise on the assigned and Patta lands, which mostly belong to the poor BC, SC, and ST farmers. In the pretext of industrial development, the party has been targeting the assigned and Patta lands. It wants to retake the assigned and Patta lands and gift them to the crony capitalists, who are loyal to the Ex. Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu.
Amaravati World Class City or World Class Scam?
Rs. 1,00,000 Crore ‘Capital’ Benefit!
Ex. CM Chandrababu Leaked Critical Information of the Capital City Location to his Coterie Members and Benamis
25,000 Acres Were Bought by the Ruling Party Land Vultures
Rs.1,00,000 Crore Profit to Nara Lokesh, His Aides and TDP Leaders
Corruption king Chandrababu Naidu has not only helped his cronies and party leaders in buying valuable lands but also protected those lands from the so-called ‘land pooling’. While the lands of ordinary farmers were taken by hook or crook, the lands of his cronies were left untouched. The way the TDP government exempted the lands of Lingamaneni Estate and Ramakrishna Constructions from the land pooling testifies for the bias. Though Lingamaneni Group and Ramakrishna Constructions have bought 804.32 acres and 179.51 acres of assigned land.
Chandrababu has pooled a total of 53,743.49 acres for the capital city from the 29 villages located in Thullur, Tadepalle, and Mangalagirimandals. Out of this, 15,010.03 acres are assigned and government lands and the remaining 38,737.46 acres are private lands.
A World Class Scam
The Captured Capital
Andhra Pradesh's new capital is now in the clutches of land vultures, which also hold high offices in the government. Not just a few, but the entire ruling Telugu Desam Party- led by its supremo Chandrababu Naidu- has attacked the new capital city and grabbed substantial amounts of lands. At the expense of poor and gullible farmers, they could have these lands registered in their names and of their benamis.
Chandrababu Naidu has hidden the decision that was taken in the very first cabinet meeting as to the location of the new capital city and intentionally created confusion among the people with his oft-changed statements and media leaks about the prospective location of the capital city. He has terrified the Dalits by spreading the rumors that the government was going to take back assigned lands without paying any compensation.
One Bit One Benami
The capital city land scam is open and ubiquitous. One doesn’t need to dig deep to obtain the evidence for the involvement of the Ex. CM and his cronies in the scam, it is just out there for everyone to see. This scandal was scripted and directed by Chandrababu Naidu under the guise of developing a world-class capital city. It dwarfs any great land scams in the world. Had the Ex. Chief Minister and his party was fair to the people, thousands of farmers wouldn’t have lost their livelihoods and prospective fortunes.
The cronies of Chandrababu and their benamis abused their power to wreak havoc in the lives of the farmers of the capital area.The Minister for Ex. Municipal Administration and Urban Development (MA&UD), P.Narayana, who has been playing an active role in the CRDA affairs, personifies the scandal.
