A recent Special Investigation Team (SIT) report has linked former Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy to a liquor scam in Andhra Pradesh. The report suggests that kickbacks from distilleries in the state since 2019 were ultimately benefiting Jagan Mohan Reddy. The scam allegedly involved forcing distilleries to pay commissions to prevent disruptions in supply orders. The collected cash was then laundered through hawala networks, affecting the state’s liquor industry by promoting brands associated with syndicates. This revelation has raised serious concerns about corruption in the state’s alcohol business.
