Bhu Bharati operational in 28 mandals from today
The government has so far implemented the Bhu Bharati Act in four mandals in the state on a pilot basis. In a statement, the minister informed that as part of the project, the revenue meetings will be held in 28 mandals of 28 districts of the state starting from May 5 till 20. Similar meetings were held in four mandals of four districts from April 17 to 30.
The main purpose of these revenue meetings is to create widespread awareness among the people about the Telangana Bhu Bharati (Record of Rights In Land) Act, 2024 and to receive applications from the people on land issues and resolve them. The minister urged the Collectors to effectively implement the Bhu Bharati Act, which was brought in after thorough consultations and study to permanently solve the land problems of farmers in the state.
Recalling inconsistencies in the earlier Dharani portal, the minister said owing to the mistakes made by the previous government, hundreds of families in every village in the state faced land-related problems.
He alleged that the Dharani has disrupted people's lives, as many families have been torn apart. Contrary to the expectations of the people, land rights have been usurped in the state in the last ten years. In the previous government, there was no other way to resolve issues but to approach courts. In the present government, the authorities will go to the farmers and resolve their problems, he asserted.

INDIA bloc considering motion to remove CEC Gyanesh Kumar
The INDIA bloc is considering a motion against Chief Election Commission (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, seeking his removal. The idea was mooted at the meeting of the Opposition's Parliamentary floor leaders on Monday (August 18, 2025). Parliament Monsoon Session: Follow updates on August 18, 2025 According to sources, the Opposition discussed whether it should continue with protests against the Election Commission, especially after the Supreme Court, in an interim order, directed the poll body to publish the details of 65 lakh voters excluded from the draft electoral roll published on August 1, following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in poll-bound Bihar. The leaders concurred that after the CEC's Sunday (August 17, 2025) press conference, in which he accused the Opposition of 'spreading misinformation', the protests had to continue. Congress leaders suggested that the Opposition should step up the pressure by moving a motion against Mr. Kumar for making 'politically charged accusations.' Congress general secretary (organisation) K.C. Venugopal told The Hindu that there was a consensus in the INDIA bloc on the issue. 'He (Mr. Kumar) spoke not like the Chief Election Commissioner but like a BJP politician. In the entire press conference, he did not answer the questions raised by the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi and the other parties. Instead, he ridiculed the Opposition for raising the questions,' he said. 'Is it the duty of the CEC to indulge in politics?' Mr. Venugopal, who said that the Opposition has enough numbers to move the motion, flagged the Chief Election Commissioner and Other Election Commissioners (Appointment, Conditions of Service and Term of Office) Act, 2023, which provides immunity to the CEC and Election Commissioners for all decisions taken by them in present and the past. He said that one should 'read between the lines' why such an immunity was extended. According to the Act, the CEC can be removed in the same manner and grounds as a Supreme Court judge. Parliament can dismiss the CEC by a motion with two-thirds majority in both the Houses. In order for the motion to be accepted, at least 50 members have to sign in its favour. Later in the day, the INDIA bloc leaders held a press conference to 'rebut' Sunday's (August 17, 2025) presser by the CEC. They flagged that the CEC failed to answer questions on why the SIR was being done in 'such a hurry' when the State elections were three months away. Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Ramgopal Yadav said that while the poll body asked Mr. Gandhi to give an affidavit, the SP had submitted affidavits with complaints of around 18,000 voters being removed from the list in 2022. 'In the 2022 Uttar Pradesh polls, when Akhilesh Yadav said names of SP supporters had been removed from the voter list, we gave affidavits. But no action has been taken,' he said. Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra said that if the voter list on which the last General Election was conducted was incorrect, the Lok Sabha should be dissolved. 'Is the list on which the Lok Sabha election was held fraudulent? If that is true, the current and previous Election Commissioners should be prosecuted, and this Lok Sabha should be dissolved immediately,' she said. Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Manoj Jha attacked the CEC and said, 'Yesterday we were looking for our CEC, we found a new BJP spokesperson.'
