AP Tourism Minister Bhuma Akhila Priya, who had challenged that she would take political sanyas if her brother Bhuma Brahmananda Reddy loses in the Nandyal by-election, has gave a befitting reply to rivals from YSRCP. As TDP got a thumping majority of 27,496 votes and gave deafening defeat to YSRCP, opposition leaders alleged that TDP spent 200 crores of money in the by-election and won by luring voters with money.
Responding to all these allegations, Akhila Priya gave it back in her own way. “Yes, we did spend Rs 1500 Crore in Nandyal. And we spent all for the development. Government had to spend huge money for various developmental works in Nandyal as earlier leaders like Shilpa have done nothing to Nandyal and Kurnool. Hence, government had to spend so much on the development,” Akhila Priya said.
Akhila Priya has refrained from making ‘harsh’ comments on opposition leaders and won the hearts with her witty remarks. While sulking YSRCP continued their verbal attack on Chandrababu Naidu and Bhuma family, TDP made a decent show and once again proved their decency.
