YSR Congress president YS Jaganmohan Reddy today accused TDP leaders of grabbing massive chunks of government and private lands in the port city.
Speaking during a "Save Vizag" protest rally, he demanded a CBI probe into the alleged land scams in the city.
He alleged TDP leaders have illegally taken possession of huge tracts of government and private land worth cores of rupees.
Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is afraid that the truth behind the scams will come out in public and hence he has ordered an SIT probe instead of a CBI inquiry, the Leader of Opposition said.
He sought a CBI probe in these alleged irregularities and claimed SIT inquiry has been ordered to protect TDP leaders involved in the scams.
"No doubt the YSR Congress will come to power in 2019 and then we will take every inch of land taken away illegally," Jagan said.
