Five acres, two stories, zero allotment file

The BRS walked out of the Telangana Legislative Council demanding scrutiny of the Tesseract land dispute. The government denied the allegations. The file remains the missing character.

An oversized locked government file cabinet labelled ‘ALLOTMENT FILE’ stands between a council chamber and a small five-acre industrial plot, beside denial papers and empty document folders.

The disputed Raviryala allotment file has not been published.

The BRS walked out of the Telangana Legislative Council on September 10 after Chairman Gutha Sukhender Reddy rejected its request to discuss the disputed allotment of government land to Tesseract Advanced Systems Private Limited. The party alleges that five acres worth about Rs 200 crore was allotted for Rs 7 crore and has sought a Lokayukta probe. Those figures remain political claims: the allotment order, valuation report, survey details and sale or lease document have not been published in the material reviewed.

Industries Minister D Sridhar Babu said Tesseract had “no connection whatsoever” with Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s brother and that the Raviryala allotment followed prescribed procedures. Publicly, however, the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum identifies Anumula Kondal Reddy as Tesseract’s chairman. That establishes an association, not ownership, control or wrongdoing. Tesseract and Kondal Reddy have not publicly responded in the material reviewed.

The government database confirms Tesseract exists and records a 2025 approval at Peddapalli. It does not settle the Raviryala dispute. For now, the government has supplied a denial; the allotment file is still doing a convincing impression of classified material.
