AP Fin Min Keshav Blames Jagan for Revenue Deficit Amid Debt Row
•Andhra Pradesh Finance Minister P Keshav blamed former CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy for the state's total revenue deficit.
•Keshav's remarks came after Jagan accused the current TDP-led NDA government of accumulating significant debt.
•Jagan claimed the NDA government accumulated 97% of his five-year debt in just two years, with revenue deficit rising to Rs 60,285 crore in FY25.
•Keshav countered, stating Jagan was responsible for the deficit even after the new government took charge in June 2024.
•He alleged Jagan caused a Rs 26,441 crore revenue deficit in just two months after the 2024 polls, citing CAG reports as proof of economic devastation.
