Pawan Kalyan slams Jagan for ‘destroying Rushikonda’ in Vizag, which he visits amid many police curbs and high drama

Pawan Kalyan slams Jagan for ‘destroying Rushikonda’ in Vizag, which he visits amid many police curbs and high drama

JSP chief Pawan Kalyan criticises CM Jagan for violating environmental norms at Rushikonda hill; claims cases booked against people for taking a pinch of sand, but now large-scale violations are being taken up by govt; says CM not capable of building even one capital. #Rushikonda #JanaSenaParty #YSReddy #EnvironmentalNorms #AndhraPradesh #CMJagan #PawanKalyan

Jana Sena Party (JSP) president K. Pawan Kalyan said that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has been blatantly violating environmental norms at the Rushikonda hill here, by destroying it.

During his visit to Rushikonda on Friday, amid a number of conditions laid by the city police, Mr. Pawan Kalyan said that cases were being booked against people in the name of environmental violations, if they took a pinch of sand, but now, largescale violations are being taken up by the government itself here at Rushikonda.

“A Chief Minister, who is supposed to protect the law, is violating it in Andhra Pradesh,” he said. “Every person in the State, especially from Uttarandhra, should know about the violations going on in Rushikonda. People should also understand that if they elect such people as political representatives, all they do is exploit the government and private properties,” he added.

“The Rushikonda hill has been protecting several villages in this region from cyclones for many centuries. But they have destroyed it. The government claims there are minor violations at Rushikonda, but in reality, those are massive,” he claimed.

Responding to a question from the media that the State government had claimed the constructions at Rushikonda as government buildings, Mr. Pawan Kalyan said, “What exactly is a government building? Is it Chief Minister’s house? How many houses does the CM want? He may have used the Circuit House as his house or camp office. Does he want a scenic view (referring to the beach view from Rushikonda)?”

Criticising the Chief Minister’s idea of creating three capitals, Mr. Pawan Kalyan said, “In reality, the CM is not capable of building even one.”
