JC Prabhakar goes begging in protest at Tadipatri

ANANTAPUR: Tadipatri municipal chairman J.C. Prabhakar Reddy carried out a bhikshattana (begging) campaign in Tadipatri town seeking money for maintenance of underground drainage system.

He pointed out that Tadipatri municipality had once been a model municipality. It is now facing a fund crisis to maintain the municipality.

Prabhakar Reddy said though he is the chairman of the municipality and also in-charge of Telugu Desam in the segment, he is having to beg from people of the town money for maintenance of Tadipatri’s underground drainage system.

Meanwhile, AP High Court has ordered a stay on construction of the compound wall for the Tadipatri Junior College, which is in front of the house of Prabhakar Reddy. Residents in the area approached the High Court saying norms are not being followed in construction of the compound wall.
