Hydraa demolished 640 illegal constructions on government land in Gajularamaram, part of over 900 identified by the agency. Commissioner A V Ranganath clarified that the demolitions targeted land grabbers, not poor families, and a report will follow after State Intelligence probe

Hyderabad: A day after Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (Hydraa) teams demolished structures on government land in Gajularamaram, its Commissioner A V Ranganath maintained that all the demolished structures were put up by land grabbers.

“We identified over 900 illegal constructions on government land and our teams demolished 640 illegal constructions built by land grabbers and local rowdy sheeters,” Ranganath said while interacting with press persons on Monday.

He stated that people on social media, through their posts, were misleading the demolition efforts by claiming that hundreds of shelters of poor families were demolished, leading to homelessness. “It is not correct,” said the Hydraa Commissioner.

Ranganath said that a detailed report on this issue will be submitted to MA&UD in the coming months, after a probe is conducted by the State Intelligence wing.
