Today, Amaravati: Aurobindo Group Director Penaka Sarath Chandra Reddy, who was arrested in the Delhi Liquor Case and became an approver, as well as those who are unable to adjust ministerial posts and MLA tickets, and some others by providing political rehabilitation… the government has given an opportunity to become members of the governing body of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam. Vaikapa has reserved about one-fifth of the posts in the board for the main social group, which is given top priority in all the posts in the government. The MLA of Yalahanka region, where CM Jagan has a house in Bengaluru, has been continued as a member again. The list came out on Friday night as recommended by Chief Minister Jagan’s office to appoint a total of 24 people as members of Titi. After midnight, orders came out with the same names.
Titide means chastity. Vaikapa government made a place for Penaka Sarath Chandra Reddy, who was arrested in the liquor case and became an approver, as a member of the governing body of such a holy institution. The reason for that is that he is the brother-in-law of Vijayasai Reddy, who is almost number 2 in Vaikapa and is the leader of the parliamentary party of that party. When Vaikapa came to power, the Andhra Cricket Association was completely in Sarathchandra Reddy’s hands, it was Sai Reddy’s influence. Sarath Chandra Reddy’s business firm Aurobindo has got many projects in the state. The government has tied the key positions in Tirumala-Tirupati including the chairman and EO to a major social group. Recently, five of the 24 members of the Thitide governing body belong to that community.
