Babu's Is A Government Of Scams, Not Of Schemes

Hyderabad: YSRCP MLA and PAC
chairman Buggana Rajendranath Reddy slammed TDP Government and called it a
Government of scams and not schemes. Condemning Swiss Challenge system, he
suggested it was not good to go against the court’s advice by manipulating the
law. He specified that Chandrababu had altered Infrastructure Enabling Act-2001
and was selling AP to Singapore.

Changes in infrastructure authority

Buggana expressed
concern towards the amendments made to Infrastructure Enabling Act-2001. He
exclaimed that the Government had gradually cut down the powers of the chief
secretary who was the authority’s chairman. Along with that, authorities in R&B,
finance, IT and other departments too had been cut short, he added. He said it
was saddening that the Government paid no respect to the authority that was
formed for estimating the possible hazards in advance, hastening work with the
help of bankers and making private persons as partners. He complained against
elimination of experts from the National Academy of Constructions.

Singaporean companies are doing business with
plots

Singaporean companies
that came into the picture of capital city construction would only do real
estate business in the area, Buggana commented. Remarking that the city would
take the shape of the famous cities of China, Japan and Singapore was only a
hallucination, he wondered what the logic was behind giving AP Government a
share of 42% and Singaporean companies a share of 58% when the whole
expenditure was from AP. He reminded that AP was investing 1691 acres of land,
Rs.3000 crore for infrastructure and Rs.5500 crore money, amounting to a total
of Rs.15,000 crore, while the foreign companies invested only Rs.300 crore and
stated that even a common man could understand some scam is underway. He
remarked that only in TDP Government the laws were being amended while relevant
cases were still in the court and predicted that people would soon see
astonishing facts about Swiss challenge scam.

Laws have been manipulated

Buggana slammed the
companies participating in Swiss Challenge for forming regulations without a
thought about the outcome. He criticised that conspiracies were being plotted to
give away thousands of crores of rupees to the Singaporean companies that
invested only Rs.300 crore and added that he roots for Swiss Challenge were
planted right on the day of Chandrababu’s swearing in. He revealed the
communication that had happened between the state’s representatives and the
Singaporean companies pertaining to the deal. Buggana commented that rules had
been framed in such a way that the Government had no chance to even question the
companies in case of any harm that happened to the 1700 acres of land collected
from the farmers of the thousands of crores of rupees invested.

Does being a foreign company give the right?

Buggana questioned the
Government about the changes made to Infrastructure Authority. Asking if being
a foreign company gives eligibility to build project and not having the
ability, he demanded explanation for going with Swiss Challenge against the
High Court’s suggestion. He expressed fury regarding the amendments made to the
regulations concerned with the bidding companies.

Insult to our engineers

Buggana slammed
Chandrababu’s insulting Indian engineers and experts. Mentioning the comment
that local engineers would build slums while foreign engineers would build
excellent projects, he questioned how was it justifiable for a CM to pass such
comments. He mentioned how cities in China and USA had drowned recently and opined
that nobody was an exception to natural calamities. Condemning the way Babu had
insulted Indian technicians, he recollected and criticised how an advocate
general had once compared Indian engineers to donkeys and suggested that people
in responsibly high positions should watch their speech. He stated that this
kind of statements were unjust in light of the acclaim Indian technicians were
garnering throughout the world.

People are laughing at
Babu’s rule

Commenting that people
were laughing at Chandrababu’s governance after their fury went down, Buggana
stated that people were wondering when the promises mentioned in the manifestop
had been implemented, after going through the Praja ballot during
Gadapagadapaku YSR Congress programme. He remarked that people had already come
to an understanding about Babu’s rule and bidding goodbye to it was the next
step. About the assets declared by Chandrababu, Buggana commented that if the
price mentioned in the submitted report was real and if the assets were to be
sold for the same cost, anybody would buy them instantly giving some extra
amount as well.
