TIRUPATI: Revenue Minister Anagani Satya Prasad announced that the investigation into the recent fire at the Madanapalle Sub-Collector office is progressing rapidly. He accused former minister Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy of causing widespread issues across the state, asserting that those responsible for any wrongdoing would be held accountable.
Speaking to the media after visiting Vakulamatha Temple in Tirupati district alongside Energy Minister Gottipati Ravi Kumar, Satya Prasad revealed that numerous land-related files had been found in the homes of Peddireddy's supporters. He stressed that no one, regardless of their status, would be exempt from scrutiny in the Madanapalle fire case. The Minister alleged that Peddireddy’s family had illegally occupied hundreds of acres of land, adversely affecting thousands in the Tirupati, Chittoor, and Rajampet constituencies. He criticized YSRC leaders for alleged embezzlement of public funds and vowed to uncover any ‘scams’ associated with the YSRC regime.
Additionally, Satya Prasad announced a new initiative to address farmers’ land-related issues. Starting August 15, revenue officials will visit villages to resolve these issues directly, with the program running from August 16 to September 30.
He also criticized the previous administration for making the Real-Time Governance system ineffective and outlined plans to revitalize it.
