Sharmila slams Naidu’s silence on Jagan-Adani ‘deal’

Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president Y. S. Sharmila on Saturday (December 7) said while the State government’s decision to constitute a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the alleged smuggling of rice meant for Public Distribution System (PDS) from Kakinada port was a welcome measure, the TDP-led coalition government had not yet made its stand clear on the Jagan-Adani bribery case.

The State Congress chief took to the social media platform, X, to slam Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, asking him why he was reluctant to initiate action against former Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, who was accused of receiving ₹1,750 crore bribe in the solar power deal with the Adani Group.

She said Mr. Naidu should clarify if he was also offered bribe by Mr. Adani for remaining silent and not initiating any action in the case. She demanded that the government scrap the deal made with the Adani Group and order a comprehensive probe into the irregularities.
