The ongoing feud between YS Sharmila and her brother, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, has escalated with Sharmila demanding a CBI investigation into the controversial Rs 1750 crore bribery scandal involving Jagan and industrialist Gautam Adani.
In a public letter, Sharmila accused Jagan of signing a dubious power distribution deal with Adani, which she claims would burden the people of Andhra Pradesh with Rs 1.5 lakh crore over the next five years. She urged CM Chandrababu Naidu to cancel the deal immediately, citing its harmful impact on the state’s finances.
Sharmila went further, calling for a CBI investigation into the deal or at least a preliminary probe led by a sitting judge. She emphasized the need for accountability and transparency in the matter.
Chandrababu Naidu had already weighed in on the issue, stating that the government is taking steps to identify those responsible for the deal and that legal actions will be pursued against Jagan for any wrong doing.
