YSR Congress party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy is insisting that there should be no scope for any corruption even if it involves small purchases of Rs 1 crore.
At an official review meeting, the chief minister instructed that any purchase which exceeds Rs one crore should hereafter be displayed on public domain for transparency and to provide corruption free governance.
He said that there had been scams in the previous government from school uniforms to automobiles but we have to ensure that all deals are done in a fair and transparent manner.
“We have to stem the rot and guide the governance in a proper way which will be acceptable to all. All purchases should be done only by bidding and the contractor’s name should be displayed only after finalization,” he said.
The Chief Minister had also asked the officials to suggest ways and means to carry out the purchases in the most effective and transparent manner.
