Botsa continues sarcasm on Naidu and Capital farmers

Minister Botsa Satyanarayana appealed to the agitating farmers of Amaravati not to remain in the trap of Chandrababu Naidu. He said that Naidu and TDP leaders grabbed the fertile lands of Capital City farmers in the name of land pooling and false promises of global city development. The Minister asked why Naidu failed to construct permanent capital in five long years. Why is Naidu now provoking farmers to demand Secretariat in Amaravati. Naidu himself is saying that the Outer Ring Road (ORR) and IT companies brought in massive development in Hyderabad. Unfortunately, Naidu is visiting protesting farmers and shedding crocodile tears. Naidu pushed AP into Rs 1.90 lakh cr debts but he spent only Rs 5,000 Cr on Amaravati which shows his lack of commitment to Capital City.

Botsa told farmers that the lands would be developed and returnable plots would be given to them. He asserted that their government is not here to protect one particular caste or one particular religion. It would work for the all round development of all regions. The Minister dismissed Amaravati farmers’ agitation as very insignificant. The farmers should at least now realise their mistake and stop their protests. Botsa accused the media of over highlighting the protests in Capital City limits. He assured farmers to develop Amaravati as an educational hub.

No clarity yet on Amaravati: Botsa reverse talk

In just one day, Confusion Minister Botsa Satyanarayana changed his statement on AP Capital status. He told Legislative Council yesterday that their government is not changing Capital. But today, the Minister announced in Vizag that there is no clarity yet on the status of Amaravati. Any clarity would come only after the GN Rao Experts Committee submits its report to the government. Interestingly, everytime Botsa speaks with clarity, it is sure to create more and more confusion on the Capital issue.

Botsa’s comments left political circles wondering whether CM Jaganmohan Reddy is still adamant to shift Capital City to another location. Everybody knows that Jagan is committed to demolishing Amaravati city and erase Chandrababu Naidu memory forever. Analysts say that none of the YCP Ministers can be trusted on their statements. We have seen how Kodali Nani has spoken utter lies on the promise of supplying super fine ‘sannalu’ variety rice to the ration card holders in the state. Botsa is no different. It’s not clear whether Jagan Reddy shifts Capital or he would just use present buildings in Amaravati without completing or constructing any structure there.

No change in AP Capital: Botsa tells AP Council

Confusion Minister Botsa Satyanarayana gave a written reply in the AP Legislative Council that their government is not going to change AP Capital from Amaravati. He gave this reply to a question asked by a TDP MLC on whether the government is shifting Capital. Botsa’s official statement came as a big surprise to the opposition members as well as Andhra the political parties. Can the Minister be believed? He is always known for creating lots of confusion on issues especially Amaravati. But now, he told Council with clarity that capital city will not be changed. However, in this brief reply, Botsa did not talk about the retired IAS GN Rao Committee which is currently gathering public opinion on Capital shifting.

In the past, YCP Ministers have repeatedly said that Capital shifting would be decided based on the report of GN Rao Experts Committee. Now, Botsa made a different statement. It is not clear yet when the experts committee would submit its report. Political analysts say that Jagan Reddy Circar has been changing its stand from time to time on Amaravati. CM is still considering Amaravati as real estate project of a particular caste. Moreover, Jagan is treating Capital city as a far lesser priority compared to his election manifesto’s Navaratnalu promises which require thousands and thousands of crores.

Botsa asks why Naidu couldn’t build Capital

AP Minister Botsa Satyanarayana took strong objection to Chandrababu Naidu’s statement that CM Jagan stopped Amaravati works as it would bring good name for Naidu. Botsa described it as a ridiculous statement as there is nothing Naidu had done for Capital City. On the other hand, Chandrababu brought Rs. 1 lakh crore loans but failed to construct one single permanent building in Amaravati itself.

Botsa demanded an explanation from Naidu what he did with the massive loans. Naidu did nothing but pushed the state into debts. The Minister asked why no building was constructed though all approvals were given. Did anybody make the buildings built by Naidu disappear into thin air?

Botsa asserted that the constructions in Amavarati were against rules and guidelines. Chandrababu has damaged all the systems for his selfish gains. The Minister said that greater harm was done to Andhras during TDP rule than at the time of united AP bifurcation. Given what he has done, Chandrababu has no right to pose questions to Jaganmohan Reddy on the Capital city. Botsa said that the Capital should be built for all people of the state but not for a single community.

Very difficult to pay even salaries: Minister Botsa

Municipal Administration Minister Botsa Satyanarayana has admitted how AP economy is in a deep crisis. He is blaming the previous TDP government for the present situation. Right now, AP is finding it very difficult to even pay salaries to the employees. Botsa says that till now, most of government funds area used to clear the dues left pending by Chandrababu Regime.

His comments came as a big surprise for the analysts. How can a minister talk like this even four months after his party came to power? The hard fact is that the state revenue has started going steeply down because of the demolition policy against Amaravati Capital City and unforeseen crisis in construction industry. Recession has also hit revenue transfers from the Centre. No Central funds are coming due to Jagan differences with the Modi Circar.
On the other hand, Navaratnalu welfare programmes will require huge funds. Jagan is already under heavy pressure to pass these benefits to his votebanks.

It is now four months in rule. People are expecting YCP to start fulfilling its poll promises instead of blaming others forever.

Andhra Minister appears in CBI court in Volkswagen case

Andhra Pradesh Cabinet Minister Botsa Satyanarayana on Tuesday appeared in a special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court as a witness in the 14-year-old Volkswagen case.

The Minister for Urban Development appeared in response to the summons issued last month.

Satyanarayana is expected to record his statement as the 60th witness in the case.

He was the Industry Minister in the Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy government in undivided Andhra Pradesh in 2005 when the scandal had surfaced.

The state government had allegedly paid Rs 11.67 crore to Vashishta Wahan Pvt Ltd floated for setting up a Volkswagen manufacturing unit at Visakhapatnam.

Vashishta Wahan, however, turned out to be a fictitious entity.

The scam came to light in 2005 when Volkswagen sacked its then head of Indian operations Helmut Schuster on charges of corruption in some other dealings. Schuster was negotiating on behalf of Volkswagen with the Andhra government for setting up the car plant.

Following allegations by the opposition that Satyanarayana and some others had paid the money to Vashistha Wahan through “dubious” means, the state government ordered the probe by the CBI.

The CBI in 2010 filed a chargesheet against six accused including Schuster. They were charged with criminal conspiracy and cheating. However, Satyanarayana was included as a witness in the case.

The other accused include businessman Jagdish Alaga Raja and his sister Gayatri Chandravadanan, Ashok Kumar Jain, Bhuwan Kumar Chaturvedi and Joseph V. George. They allegedly colluded with Schuster in floating Vashishta Wahan.

In 2015, the Enforcement Directorate had also filed a chargesheet in the case.

Is there any logic behind YCP insider trading allegations ?

The Jaganmohan Reddy government is finally giving details of real estate irregularities allegedly committed by the TDP leaders in Amaravati area during the Chandrababu Regime. Everybody expected YCP to give strong blows to the Opposition. But the government allegations are now turning out to be damp squib without logic.

It is clear now that the so-called lands of TDP leaders are not located in the seed capital area. The lands mentioned by Minister Botsa Satyanarayana are located far away at distances of 50 to 70 kms from Amaravati. Analysts are wondering whether the YCP insider trading charges are made about the lands located in 100 kms radius of Amaravati.

One of the reasons being given by YCP to shift Andhra Pradesh is insider trading. One particular caste and one particular party is deriving maximum benefit. Naturally, Amaravati will benefit the residents of Guntur and Krishna districts the most. The dominant communities here will stand to gain more. If the Capital is shifted to some other place, the same problem will arise as the dominant communities there will definitely take more benefit. If Jagan shifts Capital on petty grounds now, won’t the next government reverse his decision in the same way? Is reverse governance good for the people?

Sri Bharat hits out at Botsa over land allegations

Actor-MLA Nandamuri Balakrishna’s son-in-law Sri Bharat has dismissed allegations that their family is wrongfully given land allotments in Andhra Capital City area. He gave his clarification over Minister Botsa Satyanarayana’s statement on the land irregularities allegedly taken place during previous TDP Regime. Sri Bharat asserted that their family got allotment of 498.39 acres land at Jayanthipuram in Krishna district way back in 2007 and not during Chandrababu rule.

Sri Bharat said that this land allotment was made by the APIIC for a gas-based power plant in 2012 when a GO was issued. He said that the whole land allotment took place prior to his marriage with daughter of Balakrishna. Sri Bharat condemned the statements of Botsa Satyanarayana. Moreover, these lands are located at nearly 80 kms distance from Amaravati Capital City area.

The ruling YCP leaders say that these lands were given to Balakrishna’s relatives during former chief minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy’s time. There was collusion of Chandrababu Naidu and Kiran Kumar in this issue. The lands were allotted at a cheaper rate of Rs. 1 lakh per acre. However, Sri Bharat asserted that this cost was in fact increased by APIIC against the already quoted price at that time.

Sujana relative has 14 acres in Capital: Botsa

Sujana relative has 14 acres in Capital: Botsa

The war of words between the YCP and the BJP intensified on Andhra Capital. Minister Botsa Satyanarayana said that BJP MP Sujana Chowdary’s brother’s daughter Rushi Kanya has got 14 acres at Gokarajupalem in Veerulapadu mandal in Amaravati area. This property is related to the Greentech company which is one among the 120 companies that Sujana has.

Botsa announced this at a media conference only to prove that Sujana has lied that he has no property in the Capital. He says that nearly 25,000 sq yards land is under the name of several persons in land pooling which is also against norms. All these things prove that there was insider trading in Amaravati. The Minister asserted that the Capital should not belong to any particular caste or party.

Botsa said that collapse of real estate is bothering only the TDP leaders but it is a fact that real estate sector has greatly improved in Vijayawada, Tirupati, Visakhapatnam, Guntur, etc. He further said that the YCP government will dig out all corruption in the Capital land pooling and take action against the guilty persons.

Minister Botsa again spews venom on Amaravati

None can beat Municipal Administration Minister Botsa Satyanarayana in aggravating a given crisis quickly. For the third time in the last four days, Botsa again made shocking comments on the Andhra Capital. He says that insider real estate trading took place in the overall land pooling exercise in which one particular party derived all the benefits. The names of those guilty of committing irregularities in Capital City lands would be announced soon.

Botsa says that if required, necessary details will also be revealed at an appropriate time on the involvement of BJP MP Sujana Chowdary in lands irregularities. The Minister said that the government knows how to clarify the doubts and suspicions among the people on the issue of shifting Andhra Capital from Amaravati.

Somehow, it is clear that Jagan Circar is preparing the Andhra people for its crucial decision on Capital shifting. This may happen sooner than later going by the Minister’s continuing comments. In fact, Jagan promised not to shift Capital during his campaign meetings prior to 2019 elections. Now, his strategy totally shifted on how to remove all traces of the previous TDP regime in both welfare and development projects. Surprisingly, Jagan is not bothering to destroy the multi-crore Amaravati project.

Botsa said that soon, the government would make payments towards the rental dues for the Capital City farmers. He asserted that the farmers were only agitating for their rents and not against the YCP government’s policies as a whole.

AP Minister counters Pawan but not BJP?

It is now being confirmed that the ruling YCP is unwilling to show transparency in governance and administration. Confusion and shock treatment are the hallmarks of the Jaganmohan Reddy government. The entire Opposition has started mocking and insulting the ruling party on different issues. Still, Ministers and MLAs remain insensitive, non-serious, blunt and confusing. Now, Minister Botsa Satyanarayana repeated his same old confusing statement on Amaravati. Moreover, he so wisely clarified to Pawan Kalyan that Andhra Capital City does not belong to any one caste or any one person. But he so cleverly did not talk about BJP leaders’ criticism of YCP Capital policy.

Going by his track record, Botsa is known for creating confusion and complicating systems. If he wants to counter Jana Senani remarks, he would have given clarity as to what the government is going to do to Amaravati. The Minister should make clear whether Capital will be shifted to Donakonda or whether a separate Government offices complex would be built near Mangalagiri or whether it has any other plan.

Instead of giving clarity, Botsa has added further confusion once again. That is what he and this government is good at. If Jagan Circar is really confident of its policies, it should put them before and boldly go forward. Where is the need for mystery? The government may be giving shock treatments to TDP leaders like Kodela Sivaprasada Rao. But it is doing the same to AP people also by stopping Amaravati works and not giving any clarification on its policies.

CBI court summons Andhra minister in Volkswagen case

A special court dealing with CBI cases on Friday issued summons to Andhra Pradesh Cabinet minister Botsa Satyanarayana in a 14-year-old Volkswagen case.

The court asked Satyanarayana, a witness in the case, to appear in the court on September 12 to record his statement.

Satyanarayana was the Industry Minister in the Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy government in undivided Andhra Pradesh in 2005 when the scandal had surfaced.

Satyanarayana, then a Congress leader, is currently the Minister of Urban Development in the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government led by Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.

The state government had allegedly paid Rs 11.67 crore to Vashishta Vahan Pvt Ltd, a special purpose vehicle (SPV) of German carmaker Volkswagen, floated for setting up a manufacturing unit at Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. However, Vashishta Vahan turned out to be a fictitious entity.

The scam came to light in 2005 when Volkswagen sacked its then head of Indian operations Helmuth Schuster on charges of corruption in some other dealings. Schuster was negotiating with the state government on behalf of Volkswagen for setting up the car plant in Visakhapatnam.

Following allegations by the opposition that Satyanarayana and some others paid the money to Vashistha Vahan through “dubious” means, the state government ordered the probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

The CBI in 2010 filed charge-sheet against six accused, including Schuster. They were charged with criminal conspiracy and cheating. However, Satyanarayana was included as a witness in the case.

The other accused include businessman Jagdish Alaga Raja and his sister Gayatri Chandravadanan, Ashok Kumar Jain, Bhuwan Kumar Chaturvedi and Joseph V George. They allegedly colluded with Schuster in floating Vashishta Vahan.

In 2015, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had also filed a charge-sheet in the case.

Meanwhile, Satyanarayana told reporters in Amaravati that he was only a witness in the case. He said he was summoned as the 60th witness in the case.

Botsa diversionary comments on Amaravati

Whenever YCP is facing all-round criticism on Amaravati, Municipal Administration Minister Botsa Satyanarayana enters the scene to divert people’s attention. He is not seen around even at the peak of floods in Vijayawada Municipal Corporation limits. All of a sudden, he appeared before the media now and made a sensational but confusing statement on Capital City. Botsa said that Amaravati is prone to floods and massive funds are required to construct canals and bridges to prevent flooding of core capital areas.

Botsa further said that there is a lot of discussion is going on within the government on the issue of Amaravati construction and that a final decision will be taken soon on its fate. The Minister made similar comments in the past also but no daring steps have been taken till now. It is true CM Jaganmohan Reddy is not interested in continuing Amaravati as capital city. But he is hesitating to shift capital right now fearing large scale backlash from all coastal districts except Nellore which is dominated by his caste leaders.

Analysts say that Botsa’s comments triggered fears among coastal people as there are already doubts about floods being deliberately caused and used as an excuse by the government to shift capital. At the same time, observers say that Botsa’s comments are intended to divert attention of coastal people from all-round criticism on mismanagement of floods.

Senior BC Minister unhappy with Jagan Reddy style

Municipal Administration Minister Botsa Satyanarayana is an innocent-looking, loyal and straightforward leader. His closeness to YSR was known very well. But Sathi Babu, as he is popularly known, is not able to adjust well with the leadership style of YSR’s son Jaganmohan Reddy now. In his capacity as a senior BC Minister, he was taking some liberty and making clarifications that Amaravati Capital City construction will be continued.

As Sathi Babu was about making further comments, Jagan Reddy has reportedly called him separately and instructed him not to talk about Capital City construction. Though CM is not openly saying anything on Amaravati, the internal talk is that he is not at all interested in continuing the Capital in this place. Jagan Reddy is also not interested to lay even a single brick in Capital City during his present regime.

Finance Minister Buggana Rajendranath Reddy is clearly making statements now that the government’s priority is not Amaravati. These comments by CM and other Reddy Ministers from Rayalaseema have hurt Botcha very badly. He started maintaining a low profile and not attending the review meetings of the Capital Regional Development Authority. The senior BC Minister’s followers are saying that their leader is not getting the respect due to his seniority. There is also talk that except making 5 deputy CMs from SC, ST, BC, Kapud and Minorities, there is no corresponding respect to these communities in really important posts which are mostly bagged by Reddys.

Why TDP tried to ally with TRS before Telangana election, asks Botsa

There has been mixed reactions from common people as well as YSRCP cadres on Jagan’s meeting with KTR. Even though both TRS and YSRCP leaders are saying the meeting is only about federal front and national politics, people of Andhra Pradesh are believing that KCR wants to involve in AP elections as Chandrababu Naidu tried to put his fingers in Telangana during 2018 election.

Today Botsa Satyanarayana, YSRCP leader, convened a press meet to justify Jagan joining hands with TRS. Before this, TDP leaders have been reminding people about the injustice meted out to state of Andhra Pradesh because of bifurcation and also the rude comments made by KCR during Telangana movement. Botsa Satyanarayana responded on this propaganda and questioned TDP, ” if TRS is such a bad political party for Andhra Pradesh, why TDP tried to ally with that party before election”. He reminded, Chandrababu Naidu himself announced that he tried his level best to ally with TRS but KCR rejected his proposal.

It seems YSRCP leaders are trying their level best to defend the decision of their supremo. We will have to wait and see what will be the impact of this decision.
