Tirupati, September 21 (IANS) Former President of TTD and YSRCP leader Bhumakar Karunkar Reddy on Sunday demanded a CBI inquiry, demanding theft of the Tirumala Temple’s Kakamani (donation box) of the Tirumala temple, alleging that he had been running for the last 20 years.
The former chairman of the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) alleged that Tiruamla is being used for political, commercial and anti -retaliation by distorting facts.
Alleging that theft was going on in Karkamani for the last 20 years, he said that the theft was detected during the YSRCP rule led by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. He also claimed that TTD employee and Ravi Kumar and his family were given assets worth Rs 40 crore as an atonement on his family.
He was responding to the allegation of TTD member and BJP leader Bhanu Prakash Reddy that Ravi Kumar stole cash from the donation box. Reddy released CCTV footage to return his claim.
Prakash Reddy alleged that crores of rupees were invested in real estate using looted money, and illegal money was allegedly converted into Jagan Mohan Reddy’s house, Tadpalli Palace. He also claimed that the theft of Rs 100 crore in the history of TTD under the YSRCP rule was the ‘biggest loot’.
However, Karunkar Reddy claimed that YSRCP had lightened the theft and the family has given back its assets. He said, “It is alleged that the property was taken away by our people, fake and false and we demand a CBI probe throughout the episode to bring out the facts,” he said.
Saying that they do not rely on CB CID, whose biased functioning is in the open in liquor cases and other cases, said that the CBI will bring out the truth.
The TDP’s promotional machinery has been overboard and after the allegation that the YSRCP leadership is clear about the fact that the theft that has been going on for the last 20 years is N. Chandrababu Naidu cannot be detected as Chief Minister during his three words, but was brought to light during our tenure.
The former chairman of the TTD said that Ravi Kumar’s family fearing God voluntarily offered property.
He said, “If we had any malicious, immediately after the theft was detected, we must have blamed Chandrababu Naidu and TDP for this, but as we are honest, we surrendered to Lord Venkateshwar, the right owner, Lord Venkateswara by Ravi Kumar.”
If the incident comes to light during the TDP term, the entire recovered property is taken away by Chandrababu and his Kotri, which shows the opposite between him and YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. He said that the recent incident of theft of gold biscuits was not exposed, which reflects the shallow nature of the government.
No one ever refunded the amount in the history of TTD and it was only YSRCP term and TTD president BR Naidu and Minister Nara Lokesh are absurd to blame our leaders and mudslinging by Lokesh and this is only a false beginning and said Boomerang, Karunakar Reddy.
