RK Roja Accuses Chandrababu Naidu of Allegedly Training Thieves in Andhra Pradesh

Tourism Minister R.K. Roja has strongly criticized Nara Chandrababu Naidu, the leader of the Telugu Desam Party, accusing him of being a mentor to thieves and criminals in Andhra Pradesh. During a media interaction at the Guru Puja Usavam ceremony, the Minister asserted that Naidu was the architect behind instructing individuals in the art of embezzling public funds, and she claimed that Naidu had also extended this training to Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan.

In a comparative analogy, Roja likened Chandrababu Naidu to the renowned actor and producer Mohan Babu, stating that while Mohan Babu was often referred to as the “collection king” in the film industry, Chandrababu Naidu played a similar role as the “collection king” but in the context of siphoning state funds.

She raised questions about the lack of discussion within the Telugu Desam Party regarding the Income Tax notices that Chandrababu Naidu has received three times in connection with the Amaravati construction scandal. Roja called for a thorough investigation by both the CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) and the Enforcement Directorate into the alleged corruption involving Chandrababu Naidu and his son Lokesh. Furthermore, the Tourism Minister alleged that assets worth thousands of crores were discovered at the residence of Chandrababu’s personal assistant, Srinivas. She urged Naidu to provide an explanation for such revelations.

Potential List Adjustments by BRS in Response to ONOE Legislation

Potential List Adjustments by BRS in Response to ONOE Legislation:

The BRS (Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi) has decided to revise its election strategy and expansion plans should simultaneous Assembly and Lok Sabha polls occur in April-May. According to party insiders, they are formulating a “Plan B,” which involves a review of the list of candidates initially announced for the Assembly elections, potentially transferring some of them to the Lok Sabha elections.

Even the party president and Chief Minister, K. Chandrashekar Rao’s intention to contest in two Assembly constituencies (Gajwel and Kamareddy) may be altered if the Assembly polls take place next year. While the Telangana Assembly elections were originally slated for December, the unexpected introduction of the “one nation, one election (ONOE)” concept by the central government has led the BRS leadership to speculate that the Telangana Assembly polls could be postponed until 2024.

Even if the implementation of “one nation, one election” experiences delays and challenges, the BRS leadership believes that the Centre might opt for concurrent Legislative Assembly elections in nine states, including Telangana, alongside the Lok Sabha elections in 2024 as a preliminary step toward the broader initiative.

Meanwhile, Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Odisha, and Sikkim were planned for April. The Lok Sabha elections are currently scheduled for April-May 2024. The BRS leadership anticipates that the Centre may favor Assembly polls in these nine states along with the Lok Sabha elections in 2024.

Liquor: Telangana Government Relaxes Liquor Purchase Regulations

Telangana Government Relaxes Liquor Purchase Regulations:

Liquor stores in Telangana have acquired wine worth over Rs 200 crore in the past three days using post-dated cheques. This move came as the government permitted wine shop owners to take advantage of this opportunity to obtain as much wine as possible before the Election Commission introduced restrictions following the announcement of the Assembly polls schedule.

Under the regular protocol, shop dealers are required to acquire stocks by making payments through challans to the TS Beverages Corporation Ltd., with no credit facilities available. However, when numerous dealers faced financial constraints and were unable to purchase additional stocks, the government extended permission for them to procure wine against post-dated cheques.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, dealers have successfully purchased Rs 70 crore worth of stock on each of the three days since Tuesday.
