Vijayawada:Mangalagiri rural police have registered a case against two persons accused of cheating 20 people from Eluru, Tanuku and Tuni by promising them government jobs and collecting between `5 crore and `7 crore over a period of about 18 months.
The accused, identified as Dharani and Rajababu, allegedly lured unemployed youth with promises of jobs in the police and endowments departments. They reportedly collected money claiming they knew Jana Sena leader Kalyanam Shiva Srinivas, chairman of the AP State Police Housing Corporation, and could arrange the jobs through him.
A job seeker from Tuni contacted the Jana Sena state headquarters to check whether the party leader was involved in the process and alerted senior party leaders.
Following this, a complaint was lodged and police launched an investigation.
