YSRCP Alleges Industries Leaving Andhra Pradesh Over Harassment, Extortion Demands By Coalition Leaders

The Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) has accused coalition leaders in Andhra Pradesh of driving industries out of the state due to harassment and extortion demands. Speaking at a central office meeting, YSRCP spokesperson Putta Sivashankar highlighted that the industrial sector has faced a crisis since the coalition government took power, with existing investors leaving the state.

He cited specific examples of major projects, including the Rs 6,675-crore Tata Power project in Nellore and the Rs 3,538-crore Websol project in Naidupeta, moving to other states. Sivashankar demanded that the government explain why these investments left Andhra Pradesh and challenged the government's claims of attracting Rs 24 lakh crore in investments and creating 20 lakh jobs, asking for transparency regarding the projects and beneficiaries.

The party also criticized the government for taking back land allotted to Coca-Cola and Azad Mobility and for cancelling land linked to the GINFRA and Jupiter projects, which has impacted employment opportunities.
