TDP MLA slams previous govt over TIDCO housing scheme

Government Chief Whip and Vinukonda MLA GV Anjaneyulu criticised the YSRCP government for allegedly betraying low-income families through the TIDCO housing scheme. He accused Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy of living in luxury while the poor struggle for homes on one-cent plots.
Speaking in the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly on Saturday, Anjaneyulu claimed the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) had initiated efforts to provide housing for the underprivileged, but the YSRCP government dismantled these plans. He alleged that the Jagan administration, which had promised to construct 25 lakh houses at five lakh houses per year, failed to complete 90% of homes initiated by the TDP.
In Vinukonda, he said, 4,096 TIDCO houses were promised, but construction of 1,200 houses—80% complete under the previous government—remains unfinished. Anjaneyulu criticised the government for misleading the public with promises of one-cent housing plots, calling it a betrayal of the poor.
He urged Minister P Narayana to ensure the completion and distribution of TIDCO houses to the needy within the next two years, emphasising the importance of fulfilling commitments to the state’s most vulnerable citizens.
