Hydraa reclaimed 2,000 sq yards of land worth Rs 100 crore near Jubilee Hills check post in Hyderabad. The land, belonging to the Jubilee Hills Cooperative Housing Society, had been illegally occupied for two decades before being cleared and secured
Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (Hydraa) on Monday reclaimed a prime parcel of land covering 2,000 square yards near the Jubilee Hills check post, adjacent to the main road in Hyderabad. Authorities estimated its value at around Rs 100 crore.
The land, belonging to the Jubilee Hills Cooperative Housing Society, was earmarked for public use under the society’s layout plan. However, it had been under illegal occupation for nearly two decades.
Society members lodged a complaint in Hydraa’s Praja Vani programme, alleging encroachment. They accused Pilla Satyanarayana of illegally occupying the land, fabricating a fake house number, and operating a nursery on the premises.
Hydraa Commissioner A V Ranganath ordered a detailed inquiry, which confirmed the encroachment. Following this, the encroachments were demolished and the land was reclaimed.
Officials installed signboards marking the 2,000 square yards as secured property belonging to the society and under protection of the authorities.
