Hyderabad: Mild tension prevailed at Asmangarh, Malakpet, on Saturday after BJP leader Madhavi Latha visited the Elite Hills Apartment building, where a dispute is ongoing between flat owners and the builder.
Two people were injured in a scuffle between residents and associates of the builder, who belongs to another community, over a construction in the stilt area of the building two days ago.
On Saturday, Madhavi Latha visited the building and met flat owners who claimed they had purchased their apartments from the builder a few years ago. However, the builder allegedly began constructing another structure in the stilt area, which was originally earmarked for parking.
Tension escalated when Madhavi Latha placed an idol on a wall at the building’s entrance and erected a small shed using bricks.
Upon receiving information, the police rushed to the spot and beefed up security in the area. A police picket has been posted, and the situation is being closely monitored.
