AP Government Steps into Jagan-Sharmila Property Dispute, Pawan Kalyan Takes Charge
The Andhra Pradesh government is making headlines as it directly intervenes in the ongoing property dispute between Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy and his sister YS Sharmila. In an unprecedented move, Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, who also holds the forestry portfolio, is spearheading the inquiry into the matter.
Reports indicate that Pawan Kalyan has directed the relevant authorities to investigate whether any forest lands are associated with the Saraswati Power Company, the central focus of the Jagan-Sharmila conflict. This company currently controls an expansive 1,515.93 acres in Dachepalli, with claims surfacing that portions of this land may include forest and government properties, as well as water bodies.
Kalyan has received a comprehensive report regarding the potential existence of forest lands within the allocations made to the Saraswati Power Company. He has raised critical questions about how these lands were originally granted to a private entity by the Andhra Pradesh government, igniting a debate over the legitimacy of the transactions involved.
If Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan moves forward with legal proceedings concerning possible encroachments on forestry lands, it could place the Saraswati Power Company and its associated dealings under significant scrutiny, leading to potential legal repercussions.
This development marks a significant chapter in the political landscape of Andhra Pradesh, highlighting the intersection of governance, property rights, and environmental concerns. As the situation unfolds, all eyes will be on Pawan Kalyan’s next steps in addressing this complex issue.
