The barrage is damaged, the tests are ongoing, and the “all clear” some are touting is not in the public record. The BJP-led Centre’s agencies are still studying; the Congress government in Telangana is still promising. Telangana needs water, not spin from either side.
Two workers died when a seven-storey under-construction building in Anjaiah Nagar, Gachibowli, collapsed around 1 pm on August 22. Civic officials say they had seized the site four months ago; work restarted the day before the collapse.
An under-construction seven-storey building on an alleged 50–60 sq yd plot in Gachibowli’s Anjaiah Nagar collapsed on Saturday afternoon, killing two workers and injuring two people next door. Officials say it had no approvals and had been seized earlier; police have booked the owner and contractor.
After a seven-storey building under construction fell in Anjaiah Nagar, HYDRAA says it will survey the area and act against violations. Two deaths were reported later; the final toll and the cause are yet to be confirmed.
A seven-storey under-construction building came down in Anjaiah Nagar, Madhapur Circle, on Saturday afternoon. Fire and police began a search to find if anyone was trapped. No casualties are confirmed yet.
Telangana hosted the southern PM GatiShakti–LEADS workshop and said new logistics plans are coming. The Union’s own report calls Telangana a High Performer among landlocked states. The Manoharabad logistics park is still “proposed” on paper — the BJP-led Centre loves a projection.
Justice V.R. Reddy strikes down the Section 6 step for Mid Manair resettlement lands — says Telangana skipped the statutory hearing and couldn’t prove “exceptional urgency”. The Section 4(1) start stays; proceed afresh if you must, but do it by the book.
Seven corridors, 122.9 km on paper; the file is moving. The trains will, when the BJP-led Centre stops sitting on the DPR.
Telangana High Court throws out GHMC’s appeals on two Kondapur plots after a two-year nap; “elections” is not an excuse, the Bench says. The civic body had itself regularised the shortfall and taken the money.
Hyderabad district has moved the Paradise–Shamirpet elevated corridor one statutory step forward with Form VII declarations. It’s land acquisition, not bulldozers — yet.
A tender aggregator lists a third attempt to hire repairs for the Raghi Kunta tank in Dharmareddypally, Gajwel — bids were due to open yesterday. The official eProcurement record isn’t visible yet, and nobody is saying what happened.
Acquisition is on record for the elevated corridor; owners want cash and a narrower road. The Congress-run state promised “transparent compensation” — the formula is still missing in action.
A report says CM Revanth promised a mega package for a rural district. The record so far: silence from the files. Telangana needs roads; it also needs documents.
Prashanth Reddy set Independence Day as the finish line for four Bheemgal projects. The Congress government had a month. The paper trail showing delivery did not turn up.
RCC side-lining on the Sitarama Project’s Enkoor/Rajiv link canal in Khammam has peeled off weeks after water release. Farmers want repairs and a technical inquiry. The Congress government talked up “completion”; it can now explain this version of it.
A report says Telangana set up a one-month committee to fix how public works are executed. The government order it supposedly rests on is not on any official page we could find.
Hyderabad’s riverfront plan promises clean flow, parks and biodiversity — and, per its own brief, new commercial and residential centres. The concrete isn’t a rumour; the retaining wall tender is on paper. What isn’t on paper yet: the full EIA, house-counts and who moves where.
Officials say the Musi plan now hurts fewer homes. Residents asked to trust a DPR they still haven’t been shown. Telangana’s project, Congress’s opacity.
The High Court keeps asking for lake records. Departments keep not having them. Telangana’s lakes don’t have time for the Congress-led dithering.
