Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Friday asked officials concerned to immediately take over the 550 acres prime land in Miyapur after the Supreme Court’s favourable verdict and fence it properly.
Terming the verdict as historic, he accused the former Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and his family members of trying to encroach on the Miyapur land worth over Rs.50,000 crore.
They tried to tamper with the revenue records and tried to encroach the land before handing it over to the private persons.
He recalled that the Congress party, which was in
opposition during the BRS regime fought against the then State government to protect the land. After the Congress came to power, the State government argued the case and secured a favourable decision.
He said a favorable decision would be taken on how to use the Miyapur land based on the report of the cabinet sub-committee. If necessary, the amount generated through the sale of the land would be utilized for strengthening the education for the benefit of students.
Revanth Reddy said the Congress government managed to protect government lands worth Rs.1.50 lakh crore in the last three years.
