Apart from assets owned by HRD Minister, Properties of Directors of the Companies Paruchuri Raja Rao, Paruchuri Venkayya Prabhakar Rao and Paruchuri Bhaskara Rao were attached. Even properties of two more guarantors Kondayya Bala Subrahmanyam and Narni Amulya were seized. In addition, Assets of Pratyusha Global Trade and Pratyusha Estates too were attached. Altogether, About 26 properties have been seized so far.

Ganta Srinivasa Rao explained that he was one of the directors of the firm until 2009. He, however, claims to have resigned 7 years ago. 'Yes, I was one of the guarantor for the loan borrowed by them but they failed to repay it. If the settlement wasn't made by them, Then I myself would take the responsibility of paying the amount,' he told.
