Andhra Liquor Scam: More than ₹3,200 Crs

The NDA led government of Andhra Pradesh is very particular and assertive about the humongous liquor scam done by the previous YSR Congress government. The facts of the same are now being established by the SIT that has been formed to dig up the details and the nature of the illegal activities.

The Special Investigation Team investigating the Andhra Pradesh liquor scam has now uncovered a massive fraud amounting to ₹3,200 crore during the tenure of the Jagan government between 2019 and 2024.

The findings of the SIT investigation revealed that national liquor brands were systematically pushed out to benefit select private firms which are accused of belonging to YCP leaders. This allowed the creation of a parallel, opaque supply chain where liquor was sold at inflated prices, generating illegal profits.

The SIT reported the use of forged documents and shell companies to facilitate these transactions. Allegations also pointed to collusion between top government officials and politically connected businessmen.

The scale and planning behind the scam suggest it could be larger than the Delhi liquor policy case. The hard facts and the financial transactions regarding the liquor scam are now being investigated by the SIT. More detail details are expected to emerge in the due course.
