For those of you outside Andhra Pradesh, you would probably not be knowing about the massive liquor mafia scam that is being unearthed. Recent ACB report to the court mentioned that this scam maybe worth Rs. 15000 crore!
Even if you knew the above point, there is little probability that you will know that the Pradesh congress president is also facing a lot of heat from the opposition. Mr. Botsa Satyanarayana has himself agreed that ~30 of his relatives/acquaintances have liquor shops and it is perfectly legal. Curiously, he also derided the opposition asking them why they are concentrating so much only on liquor scam, and not on other burning issues like weavers and farmers problems. The irony of the ruling party chief himself telling the opposition what to concentrate on aside, that statement showed his uneasiness.
Today, regional newspaper, Eenadu published scathing proof of Mr. Botsa Satyanarayana's (BS) invovlement in this liquor business. Mr. BS hails from the district of Vijayanagaram. The town of Vijayanagaram has 12 liquor outlets. 11 of them belong to people working in Mr. BS's industries/shops.
Some of these 11 "owners" have a white ration card. A white ration card means the government has classified you as "poor". These people have bought these liquor shops by shelling out tens of lakhs of rupees. Details below.

(Rupees Ninety Nine lakhs, seventy thousand only). He works in "Satya Stone Crushers" owned by Mr. BS and also looks after electrical problems at home.

CHANDRAM BABU, ENCASHED THE MISTAKE AND COOPERATED TO RUIN THE ADMIN SYSTEM.
thanks for this unknown information
good information about our so called political leaders..all politicians are used to say they came into politics to do service..Yes they are doing very great service by own liquor licences and selling liquor to all areas like near to schools, Temples , everywhere.
The great thing is many villages and districts were facing a problem to have a drinking water. But our Great administration and politicians were succeeded by supplying liquor to all the corners... either by direct shops or Belt Shops... But finally we vote to the same Great Leaders....
few points which you must updated
1.supreme court let free botsa of liquor scam coz of less evidence why did acb put 2 different reports before court ?
2.why did the acb officer transferred in spite of the court orders
3.why did the acb started fresh investigation when the report was taken away by the transferred officials.
4.why there were 2 conflicting reports presented to the court
5.why did the opp or tdp in the botsa constituency were silent ? how much did they eat in this liquor scam ?
6.why did the raja of vizianagaram ,the great ashok gajapati raju garu did not mention botsa in his very recent exhibition on cong scams in vizianagaram ..
7.why did the so called media houses expect eenadu and andhra joythi did not even went on with the case after the initial reports
you may say this are just allegations ....i only quoted from papers ....there is much more which will never come because voters dont need to know this ......they need rs500 per vote ....
just saying
Kindly change the word "partly" to "paltry".
