    Hyderabad Officials Investigate Land Encroachments

    Hyderabad officials are taking action after receiving complaints about illegal occupation of government land in various parts of the city. The Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (HYDRA) Commissioner, AV Ranganath, has started inspections in multiple areas. These complaints were brought up during the HYDRA Prajavani programme on Monday.

    During his inspection, the Commissioner visited Tirumalagiri village in Alwal mandal. Here, more than 100 acres of land, recorded as government property, are being claimed by private individuals. In response, Ranganath has ordered officials to stop issuing construction permits for this area.

    He also visited Lingam Cheruvu near Bubba Khan Lake in Dundigal village, Gandimaisamma mandal. Local residents had complained about illegal structures along the canal, which were blocking floodwaters and causing flooding in nearby areas. The Commissioner urged residents and real estate developers to work together to fix the issue, following court guidelines.

He instructed officials to check if TDR beneficiaries had unlawfully occupied government land and to take necessary actions.

    Earlier, during a Prajavani programme on March 10, HYDRA received 63 complaints about illegal occupation of lake beds and other public lands. People reported that some individuals were creating fake passbook records to claim ownership of land originally classified as lake beds, converting them into agricultural fields. There were also complaints about encroachments on roads and parks, with residents demanding action to protect these public spaces.

    Additionally, some complaints accused former municipal councilors and ward members of using their influence to take over public land illegally. Many complainants expressed frustration, saying that despite reporting these issues, local authorities had not acted.

    Commissioner Ranganath assured the public that HYDRA would investigate these concerns and take necessary steps to address the problem.
