Corrupt officials will be jailed: Shabbir Ali

Nizamabad: State government adviser Mohammad Ali Shabbir on Thursday said that the extent of scams under the BRS government could be gauged by the fact that a former HMDA director had amassed ill-gotten wealth to the tune of Rs 500 crore. The Congress government will not spare any corrupt official and each of them will be sent to jail, he said. 

Since being appointed as adviser to the government on SC, ST, BC and minority welfare affairs, this was Shabbir Ali’s maiden visit to his home town Kamareddy. He was accorded a rousing welcome by party activists at Baswapur from where they went in a vehicle rally up to Kamareddy.

Speaking on the occasion, Ali said that the BJP government did injustice to Telangana



state in the interim Budget, which also has reduced funds for minorities and their scholarships. It has disappointed all sections of people, he said. 

Meanwhile, he called upon party workers to make a success of the ensuing public meeting at Indravelli, which will be addressed by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Friday. Marking the occasion, a medical camp was held at Islampura in Kamareddy town under the joint aegis of the Shabbir Ali foundation and Sahayata trust Indo US hospital. Doctors from the US and Hyderabad provided medical services to over 1,500 patients, who turned up. Kamareddy district Congress committee president Kailas Srinivas Rao and others were present.
