Know More About The Country’s Richest CM, Who Has Assets Worth Rs. 510 Cr….

The richest CM in the country is Andhra Pradesh’s YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, who has assets worth Rs 510 crore, while West Bengal’s Mamata Banerjee is the only CM who is not a crorepati, according to the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), a watchdog group that works for political and electoral reforms.

According to the report

Telangana CM KC Rao tops the list with the most criminal cases and financial liabilities against his name. Banerjee has the least wealth of any CM, with Rs 15 lakh in assets, followed by Kerala’s Pinarayi Vijayan and Haryana’s M L Khattar, who have Rs 1.2 crore and Rs 1.3 crore in assets, respectively, according to ADR.

According to ADR 29 (97%) of the 30 chief ministers studied are crorepatis, with the average assets for each CM totaling Rs 34 crore. ADR submitted its report after reviewing poll affidavits from CMs in 28 states and two UTs.

Arunachal Pradesh’s Pema Khandu trails Jagan with Rs 163 crore in assets, followed by Odisha’s Naveen Patnaik with Rs 63 crore. According to the report, KCR’s assets are worth Rs 23 crore.

Patnaik’s assets are primarily his immovable properties, accounting for approximately Rs 63.6 crore of the total Rs 63.9 crore, more than double the average assets per CM of Rs 33.9 crore. The 76-year-old bachelor politician’s immovable assets consist of three properties he inherited, with no additions of his own.

According to last year’s ADR report

Jagan’s assets totaled Rs 373 crore, including assets inherited and acquired, putting him atop the list of richest CMs in the country in 2022 as well. Last year, KCR’s assets totaled Rs 13.7 crore. Nitish Kumar of Bihar had Rs 56 lakh, making him one of the country’s “poorest” chief ministers.

According to ADR, KCR has 64 criminal cases filed against him, including 37 serious offences, making him the CM with the most cases filed against him. The majority of the cases against him were filed during Telangana’s statehood campaign. KCR also faces two charges related to punishment for attempting to commit crimes punishable by life imprisonment or other jail terms, according to ADR. According to ADR’s report from last year, KCR was one of the five elected representatives in the country with the most criminal cases (64) filed against him. Kerala MP Dean Kuriakose topped the list with 204 cases, followed by DMK MP S Kathiravan, who had 99 cases pending against him.
