Nara Lokesh is Andhra Nayeem: Gautham Reddy

Vijayawada: YSRCP leader Gautham Reddy on Saturday slammed the TDP government for its corrupt practices as Nara Lokesh has become another gangster Nayeem for Andhra Pradesh.

Speaking to the media here, Reddy said: "Totally ignoring administration and welfare of people, all the MLAs and ministers are engaged in corruption. They are doing this as they have to shell out the kickbacks from every contract and every scheme to Nara Lokesh. The TDP even conducted a workshop on how to mint crores of rupees. Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has set a collection target for each MLA in the range of Rs40 crore to Rs50 crore. Those who topped the list of corrupt MLAs and ministers have been given 'A' grade in the TDP workshop."
