Balaiah Word Has No Value In Naidu Govt?

Balaiah Word Has No Value In Naidu Govt?

Senior actor Nandamuri Balakrishna is no ordinary person. He is Telugu Desam Party MLA from Hindupur, son of party founder and legendary actor N T Rama Rao, brother-in-law of none other than present chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu and father-in-law of Naidu’s son and IT minister Nara Lokesh, who is being tipped to succeed his father, if everything goes well in 2019 elections.

So, it is nothing but natural to expect that Balakrishna’s word has a lot of value in the Naidu government. But it is not the situation, if one were to go by a latest episode linked to sensational Visakhapatnam land scam.

The Naidu government has constituted a Special Investigation Team to probe into the alleged tampering of land records in Visakhapatnam which led to encroachment of lands worth thousands of crores by influential politicians from the ruling party.

A prominent producer in Telugu film industry, who has a name for himself for producing some good films, along with his close friends, purchased around 10 acres of land in Visakhapatnam at the rate of Rs 50 lakh per acre.

He paid an advance of Rs 5 crore to the persons who sold the land. However, as the registration of the land was about to take place, the Visakhapatnam land scam surfaced and the SIT started investigating the matter.

Unfortunately for this producer, the land he purchased happened to be the disputed piece encroached upon by the seller through dubious means by tampering of records.

As a result, the producer could not get the land registered. He could not get the land nor could he get back the advance amount paid to the seller despite his best efforts.

Having no other option, the producer is learnt to have approached Balakrishna to see that he got back his money paid in advance for the piece of land. Though Balakrishna tried to help him out, but he could not succeed as the other party is said to be an influential TDP leader.

For some strange reasons, even Lokesh could not help the producer in any manner. With his money stuck up with the  land grabber, the producer is very much worried!
