HYDRAA protects land worth Rs 1,511 Cr from various areas across Hyderabad
Hyderabad: Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Protection Agency (HYDRAA) removed encroachments from lakes and parks and protected land worth Rs 1,511 crore on Tuesday, February 10.
In Kondapur, on the road going from Serilingampally Municipal Office to Madinaguda, encroachers had allegedly filled up 4 acres of a lake called Jangam Kunta with soil and had planned to sell it as plots.
Acting on news reports, HYDRAA inspected the area and confirmed the land was part of a lake and fenced it. The land has an estimated value of Rs 700 crore.
The agency removed encroachments from eight acres of the new Alwal lake after locals complained that a plastic compression unit within the lake’s Full Tank Level (FTL) limits was polluting the lake.
Temporary sheds had also been erected for workers along with four shutters for storing tent material within the lake’s FTL, HYDRAA said.
