Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO) has extended a massive Rs 11,000 crore loan to the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA) for the construction of Amaravati, the state capital of Andhra Pradesh

The SC questioned CM Naidu for publicly alleging adulteration in Tirupati laddus, questioning the appropriateness of his statements while an investigation was still underway.

Supreme Court asked the Andhra Pradesh government about the proof that the contaminated ghee was used in the preparation of prasadam laddus.

Jagan Mohan Reddy claimed that CM Naidu was spreading lies about the adulteration in ghee to shift focus.

Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu asked officials to provide him with real-time updates on the progress of the inquiry into the burning of Sri Ramalayam chariot.

Speaking to media, CM Chandrababu Naidu reaffirmed that his government is committed to respect religious sentiments and vowed to take appropriate actions after consulting religious leaders.

Former TDP Chairman and YSRCP leader YV Subbareddy had earlier denied all allegations of animal fat adulteration in ghee used to make the Laddu prasadam. He claimed that only organic ingredients were used in the preparation of Prasadam.

The ghee used to prepare the Tirupati laddu prasadam during the YSRCP rule contained traces of animal fat.

The report indicated that the ghee contained traces of fish oil, beef tallow and lard served at Tirupati Temple.

Chandrababu Naidu claimed that the quality of Tirumala Laddu had become substandard during the previous dispensation, and termed it a sacrilege. YSR Congress, meanwhile, refuted the claim
