Harish Rao’s Counter to Minister Ponguleti

Senior leader T. Harish Rao strongly criticized Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy over alleged irregularities and corruption issues. He stated that Ponguleti spoke more like the head of a construction company rather than a minister, and claimed that he indirectly accepted corruption among fellow ministers.

Harish Rao alleged that Ponguleti admitted to irregularities related to Raghava Constructions in the Assembly. He pointed out that four departments had already conducted inquiries and submitted reports. Despite notices being issued, Ponguleti is denying any connection, which raised further questions. He also said that more details about these alleged irregularities will be revealed soon.

In a sharp remark, Harish Rao said Ponguleti should control his attitude and even made a sarcastic comment on his name. He questioned whether Ponguleti’s son has links with certain companies and raised concerns about alleged encroachment of government lands. He also asked why security guards were being used if the lands belonged to the government and mentioned that the Nadergul lands were restricted back in 2016.
