Sarpanch post auctioned for Rs 51.3L in Nalgonda village

In a village in Nalgonda district, the position of Sarpanch was sold to the highest bidder.

A man named Pandulu Venkataiah Goud won by offering Rs 51.3 lakhs.

The village elders organized the auction, which is a traditional way to choose leaders in some villages.

The money raised will be used to build a temple and install a special idol.

This is not the first time the village has done something unusual.

In the last elections, many villages in the area chose their leaders without any voting because everyone agreed on the same person.
