7 Lakh Acres Grabbed! BRS Leader Slams CM Revanth Reddy
BRS leader Dasoju claims Telangana CM Revanth Reddy controls 7 lakh acres of land and dismisses allegations against KCR over Miyapur lands.
The political climate in Telangana has reached a boiling point as Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader Dasoju launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister Revanth Reddy. In a series of explosive claims, Dasoju has accused the Chief Minister of massive Revanth Reddy land grabbing, alleging that nearly seven lakh acres of land are currently under his control.
The Miyapur Land Row: A Battle of Narratives
The controversy erupted following allegations made by the Chief Minister against former CM K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) regarding the Miyapur land issue. Dasoju, however, has dismissed these claims as baseless and "uncalled for," welcoming the recent Supreme Court verdict on the matter.
According to the BRS leader, the judgment is not a sudden victory but the result of a legal battle spanning three decades. He emphasized that the previous BRS government under KCR had consistently pursued the case to ensure a resolution.
"Bharat Rashtra Samithi welcomes the verdict of the Supreme Court with regard to the Miyapur lands. And today's judgment is also because of the constant and serious persuasion that was done by former Chief Minister Shri KCR," Dasoju stated.
A Lesson from the Collector?
In a sharp jab at the Chief Minister's knowledge of the case, Dasoju suggested that Revanth Reddy needs to be "tutored" by his own administration. He pointed toward Ranga Reddy district collector Narayana Reddy, who had reportedly noted that the litigation over the Miyapur lands actually began back in 1995.
Dasoju argued that since the matter had been in the courts for nearly 30 years, attributing the issue solely to KCR is a distortion of facts. He urged the CM to verify the actual records before making public accusations.
The '7 Lakh Acre' Allegation
The most shocking part of Dasoju's statement involves the scale of land allegedly controlled by the Chief Minister. The BRS leader claimed that Revanth Reddy, utilizing his influence and capacity as the Municipal Administration Minister, has captured between 6.5 to 7 lakh acres of land.
Dasoju specifically linked this land control to several key urban bodies, including:
- The Future City Development Authority
- Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC)
- Malkajgiri Municipal Corporation
- Secunderabad Municipal Corporation
Claims of Forcible Acquisitions
Beyond the sheer volume of land, Dasoju raised a serious human rights concern, alleging that the land being grabbed isn't just vacant plots. He claimed that land assigned to the most vulnerable sections of society—including Dalits, the poor, and marginalized communities—is being forcibly acquired by the current administration.
The BRS leader concluded that the Chief Minister is intentionally politicizing the Miyapur issue to create a smoke screen, diverting public attention away from the "brazen grabbing" allegedly being carried out by Revanth Reddy and his family members.
