One more Jhalak to Jagan: Jasti got promotion

The issue is related to one officer who was suspended by AP government. Jasti Krishna Kishore was suspended by AP government in December 2019.

He belongs to IRS officer and worked as CEO of AP Economic Development Board during TDP era. YSRCP government was suspended him on charges of misappropriation of funds and causing a huge loss to the State exchequer. The case was registered based on a complaint lodged by P Tulasi Rani, Special Grade Deputy Collector, APEDB.

Kishore was approached Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) and got stay orders from suspension. CAT also allowed him to go Central services. At the same time, CAT asked YSRCP government to proceed against allegations on Krishna Kishore. As per buzz, the reason behind his suspension is different. Krishna Kishore worked in digging of Jagan’s Bharati Cements as Accounts officer in 2011 as per CBI instructions.

Jagan has remembered Krishna Kishore and take the revenge against him after YSRCP came into power. But today, Central Government has promoted him as Commissioner of Income Tax. Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) issued orders in this regard to promote as Principal Commissioner of Income Tax and ordered Krishna Kishore to report in Delhi. This is rude shock to YSRCP government. He got double bonanza by getting relief from State government and got the promotion.
