Amaravati: Velampalli assures no misuse of temple lands by government

Amaravati: Unlike TDP government, our government was not giving any temple lands for corporates or any outsiders, said Minister for Endowment department, Velampalli Srinivas Rao at a press conference, at Tadepalli in Guntur district on Sunday.
He said that, the High Court permission was needed to sell even one cent of endowment lands. Without any knowledge, TDP members were raising false accusations stating that government was using the endowment lands for house sites to poor, he criticised. These lands were not being used for house sites, he added. The government was not going to use any endowment lands either they were temples, church or anything, said Srinivas.
Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy brought a historical initiative by distributing pensions at the doorstep of the beneficiary, he added. Even though the entire state was happy with this initiative, TDP members were still looking for the bad things, said Minister.
Speaking to media Brahmin Corporation Chairman Malladi Vishnu said, "In the last five years, TDP members did a lot of corruption and they didn't even spare the temple funds or corporation treasuries. Now they are accusing on us stating that we diverted Rs 234 Crores of Corporation funds. According to the Supreme Court guidelines, we established welfare board for Archakas and Rs 171 Crore fixed deposits were there and spent according to the guidelines".
