Nellore: Municipal Administration Minister P Narayana has informed that the state government is considering allocating additional funds for housing of the ST population in the state. He inaugurated housing complex in 54th division in the city on Thursday.
Speaking to the media, the Minister alleged the then state government had constructed houses for the poor with very poor quality and misused Rs 4,200 crore public funds.
