TDP’s Diwakar Reddy says he spent Rs 50 crore in recent polls
Senior Telugu Desam Party leader JC Diwakar Reddy said on Monday he had spent nearly Rs 50 crore during the Lok Sabha election in Andhra Pradesh, which was held on April 11, as he blamed voters for demanding money to cast their ballots.
Under the norms laid out by the Election Commission, the maximum expenditure a candidate contesting the Lok Sabha elections can incur is Rs 70 lakh and for those fighting the assembly elections Rs 28 lakh is the limit. The candidates have to submit the expenditure details to the poll body after the election process is completed.
Reddy said elections have become a costly proposition while speaking to reporters in Amaravati where he attended a meeting conducted by TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu. It was held to review the party’s performance in the recent election.
