Andhra Pradesh government has ordered a vigilance probe against the former TTD executive officer Dharma Reddy and I&PR Commissioner Thumma Vijay Kumar Reddy for allegedly misusing their official position for party interests.
Dharma Reddy was first appointed as JEO of TTD when YSRCP came into power in 2019 and was later appointed as in-charge EO of TTD.
Accusations against Dharma Reddy:
He is accused of misappropriation of funds from TTD and gathering donations for YSRCP by taking advantage of his position in TTD.
There are complaints of irregularities in the allotment of land for guesthouses in Tirumala by not following the guidelines of the Supreme Court, irregularities in the purchase of raw materials for making Annaprasadas and laddoos, and that cash and gold deposits have been deposited in banks that are convenient for them.
Two days ago, TDP leaders Nilayapalem Vijaykumar and Gurjala Malyadri filed a complaint to CS Nirabh Kumar Prasad asking for a vigilance inquiry into Dharma Reddy’s corruption and irregularities.
The representatives of journalist associations have complained to the government that Vijay Kumar Reddy, who served as the Commissioner of Information and Public Relations Department during YCP’s tenure, was involved in large-scale corruption in the department.
After the new TDP government took power in June, Dharma Reddy was replaced with J Syamala Rao.
