Ex-Minister Vidadala Rajini Faces New ₹5 Crore Job Scam Allegations

Share


YSR Congress Party leader and former Andhra Pradesh Health Minister Vidadala Rajini has once again found herself at the center of controversy. Already facing a CID probe over an alleged extortion case involving a stone crusher owner, Rajini is now entangled in a massive job fraud scandal that has surfaced in Palnadu district.

According to complaints lodged with the district Superintendent of Police (SP), several victims — including a B Pharmacy student named Krishna from Dornala — accused Rajini’s personal assistants and close aides of cheating unemployed youth by collecting nearly ₹5 crore under the guise of providing government jobs.

As per the complaint, Rajini’s PAs Sreekanth Reddy and Dodda Ramakrishna, along with her followers Sriganesh and Kumaraswamy, allegedly promised contract postings in the Health Department during Rajini’s tenure as minister. Each aspirant was reportedly asked to pay ₹8 lakh.

However, when no jobs materialized, the victims demanded refunds. Instead, the accused allegedly threatened them and went absconding, switching off their phones. The victims have now approached the police with bank transaction proofs and WhatsApp chat evidence, prompting a preliminary investigation.

“This is a serious betrayal of unemployed youth who were desperate for opportunities,” said a senior police official. “If the allegations are proven, it would amount to criminal breach of trust and extortion.”

The issue has triggered strong political reactions, with the ruling TDP demanding a full-fledged investigation and questioning the moral accountability of the YSRCP leadership. Party leaders allege that the scam reflects the deep-rooted corruption that plagued the system during the previous government’s tenure.

Earlier, Rajini was booked in another case for allegedly extorting ₹2.20 crore from the owners of Sri Lakshmi Balaji Stone Crusher in Kandrika village, Yadlapadu mandal of Palnadu district — a case that is currently under CID investigation.
