Jagan Accuses Naidu of 'Credit Chori' Over Andhra Housing Program
He alleges the 18-month-old government acquired no land or house sites, sanctioning no new homes.
Overview
- In a post on X, Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy said the Naidu-led administration is claiming credit for housing works initiated and executed under the previous YSRCP government.
- He asserted that of the 3,00,092 houses touted by the chief minister, the present government issued no pattadar titles for beneficiaries.
- Jagan cited YSRCP-era figures, including 31.19 lakh house-site pattas over 71,800 acres, 21.75 lakh houses sanctioned, and more than 9 lakh completed despite pandemic disruptions.
- He added that 1,40,010 houses were at finishing stage, 87,380 had reached slab level, and 66,845 were under construction when YSRCP left office.
- His remarks followed Naidu’s virtual inauguration of about three lakh welfare houses, and reports noted no immediate response from the ruling party to Jagan’s allegations.
