The Jagan government has issued fresh guidelines on selling movie tickets online. Appointing Andhra Pradesh Film Development Corporation (APFDC) as Nodal Agency, the corporation will handle the service provider for the online ticketing portal.
This is one way of filling the Government coffers. But the Government is selling liquor only for cash and we do not know what percentage is going to the Government with the sale of liquor.
People say there is no proper accountability from the Government on the sale of liquor. Jagan on the other hand has requested the centre to allow the Government for further borrowings.
Earlier the AP government attempted to control the ticket prices for big movies but the controversy ended with Megastar Chiranjeevi taking initiative and holding talks with AP CM YS Jagan multiple times.
Now the apprehension is proved right. The AP Government will take the two per cent commission. The welfare schemes are cutting into the revenues in a big way.
But Jagan the CM said that the flow of money for the welfare schemes should not be stopped. Now they are trying to restrict the schemes to some of them only.
