The Telangana government has given clarity on the criticism of BRS, BJP leaders on Hyderabad Central University land at Kanche Gachibowli at Serilingampally mandal of Rangareddy district.
It has clarified that 400 acres of land belong to the government and there is no HCU land in the project.
In a statement here issued by the Chief Minister’s Office ( CMO) on Monday, it informed that the State government had proved legally the ownership of land in the court and acquired the property which was allotted to a private company 21 years ago through a legal battle.
It further stated that the development of works and auction of the land will not affect the ecosystem including rocks. Moreover, no lake exists in the land allotted for development.
The Chief Minister’s office stated that then State government in the erstwhile united Andhra Pradesh allotted the land to a private company in 2004 and however, the current Congress government acquired the ownership of the land by legally winning the case in the Supreme Court.
“A survey report disclosed that the University of Hyderabad ( Central University) did not own even a single inch of land,” the statement said.
“The State government led by Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy is giving top priority to the sustainable development of the local area and conservation of the environment in every plan.
However, some political leaders and realty groups are opposing the project and misleading the students for their vested interests,” the CMO said.
It further cautioned that disputes if any created on the ownership of land will be a contempt of the court.
