Amid allegations by BJP chief and Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) member Bhanu Prakash Reddy that over Rs 100 crore was looted from Tirupati temple donation containers in the course of the YSR Congress Social gathering regime, the YSRCP has hit again.

YSRCP spokesperson Margani Bharath mentioned the get together “strongly condemns the reckless makes an attempt of Chandrababu Naidu and Nara Lokesh to misuse the sacred Tirumala temple for his or her soiled politics.”

He accused TDP leaders of dragging Lord Venkateshwara’s identify into political propaganda to divert public consideration from their governance failures.

Bharath highlighted that in April 2023, a TTD worker was caught stealing US {dollars} from Shrivari Humbi. The matter, he mentioned, was investigated transparently, and property price round Rs 14.43 crore had been handed over to TTD by the accused and his household following authorized procedures.

“The info are very clear, but Naidu and Lokesh are twisting the reality to malign YSRCP, slander, and defame. This reveals their utter disregard for utilizing Lord Venkateshwara’s identify for political scores,” Bharath mentioned. He questioned whether or not such recovered property would have gone to TTD or into TDP pockets if the theft had occurred throughout their tenure.

The YSRCP chief urged the general public to fastidiously contemplate the info and the way TDP leaders are allegedly exploiting the sacred temple for political mileage.
