Jagananna Housing Colonies are fine examples of neglect everywhere in Andhra Pradesh. Many houses in the layouts are still in the foundation stage itself. Most colonies do not have basic amenities like roads, street lights, drainages, etc.
But then, the Government is sanctioning money to construct arches for these colonies. This is to have the name ‘Jagananna Colony’ and the Chief Minister’s picture on them.
For Guntur, Palnadu, and Bapatla districts alone, the Government sanctioned 4.02 Crore for the construction of these arches. Eight-five arches will be constructed on war-footing.
Over one Lakh houses in these three districts are still at the basement level.
The Government may have helped over 430 houses with these funds to the tune of 1.5 Lakh Rupees per house. They could have created basic amenities in the colonies. But the focus is only on publicity.
Some of the oldest and posh colonies in Guntur like Brundavan Gardens, Arandalpet, and Lakshmipuram do not have arches but Jagan wants them for the incomplete colonies.
It has become like asalu kante kosaru melu!
