The HYDRAA removed illegal encroachments on the playground by demolishing the five under-construction buildings at Shastripuram Colony of Mailardevpally village in Rajendranagar mandal of Rangareddy district and saved worth Rs 100 crore government property on Wednesday.
HYDRAA removed illegal structures in the land allocated for the playground in the 188-acre HUDA-approved layout. It removed five buildings under construction on the 3-storey G Plus and also removed two more single-room structures.
According to this layout, which has more than 1800 plots, 6,500 yards of land has been allocated for the playground. Even though it is known that the land is allocated for the playground, the local squatters have been selling the plots on the notary for the last 3 years.
The construction is being carried out without any permission. GHMC had also issued notices in the past. It had also issued speaking orders that the site would be demolished in 2024. However, construction was going on there without paying attention. Locals complained to HYDRAA about the construction.
The officials inspected the site at the field level along with GHMC and revenue officials. They confirmed that it was allocated for a sports ground as per the layout. HYDRAA immediately warned against construction and removed the encroachments on Wednesday morning.
It removed 5 under-construction buildings and two small rooms. It excluded two other buildings as they already had residences.
