AP: YSRCP alleges financial irregularities in Nellore Municipal Corporation

Nellore, Sep 30 (UNI) YSR Congress Party senior leader and former Minister Kakani Govardhan Reddy has alleged that the Nellore Municipal Corporation has become a hub of unchecked financial irregularities under Municipal Administration Minister P Narayana, with taxes sharply increased and civic works being divided into small packages to avoid open tenders.
Addressing the media at the YSRCP district office here on Wednesday, Govardhan Reddy displayed municipal budget documents, tender papers and agenda copies and said annual tax collections, which ranged between Rs.44 crore and Rs.66 crore during the YSRCP government, rose to Rs.111 crore last year, while the current target has been increased to Rs.154 crore.
“The water tax alone has been increased from Rs 7 crore to Rs 30 crore,” he claimed, adding that even poor households are being threatened with court and Lok Adalat proceedings for tax recovery. The Ex-Minister recalled that the previous government used 95 closed CLAP autos for door-to-door garbage collection at a cost of Rs.58.90 lakh per month and Rs.7.06 crore annually.
