HYDRAA reclaims government land in Kandikal
Forces from the Hyderabad Disaster Response & Asset Protection Agency removed unauthorised structures from a government land in Kandikal village, Bandlaguda mandal, on Wednesday.
The land measuring 2,500 square yards, was procured under the Urban Land (Ceiling & Regulation) Act, 1976, and encroached by two persons, Syed Basheeruddin and Syed Hameedullah Hussaini.
Though their attempts to get the land regularised in their name did not succeed, they constructed sheds and rooms on the land. After a legal battle, recently, the High Court had given orders favouring the government, a statement from HYDRAA informed.
Upon request from the Revenue Department, HYDRAA officials have undertaken a field inspection, verified the ownership details, before taking action. Four rooms and tin sheds, and four shops have been demolished, and sign boards have been installed indicating that it is government land.
Mild tension prevailed when local politicians arrived to support the encroachers and attempted to halt the demolitions. The situation was saved by intervention from the local police, the statement informed.
