GHMC has procedures, courts have recorded deviations and ACB cases have been reported. The grander corruption claim remains mostly a claim.
BRS leader T. Harish Rao has demanded the removal of land from Telangana’s prohibited-properties list in Patancheru, but the figures published alongside his claim do not add up.
The Supreme Court upheld private title in Survey No. 613. Recent claims say the land remains on the government’s prohibited list and parts are under company control. The records needed to settle the present position are still missing.
Telangana is reportedly preparing conditional registrations for some disputed Paigah lands, but the document making it real is still missing.
A report says 76,000 acres in Hanamkonda–Jangaon are on the prohibited list. The paperwork that would prove it is still missing; the roadblock for buyers and sellers is not.
Hyderabad’s PM Ekta Mall has Central money on paper and a state process on file. What it doesn’t have, yet, is daylight on the deal the Congress government is pushing at Raidurg.
The industrial-park push in CM Revanth Reddy’s backyard ran into a High Court brake. A new report now alleges six school acres slipped into the payout list. The paperwork that would prove it is still conveniently invisible.
TGIIC says its 5.25-acre Plot P1 at Raidurg drew ₹1,386 crore via MSTC — topping the earlier ₹237 cr/acre Raidurg mark. The record claim rides on one published report; the official result notice and bidder name aren’t public yet.
At Kukatpally, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy said buyers caught in Section 22-A blocks won’t “lose their land” and promised directions to enable registrations. The government’s own land portal admits record-entry errors exist — and gives a route to correct them.
Residents say years of blocked registrations over a village-name mismatch. A new report says the Waqf Board has moved to fix the gazette — but the fix isn’t published yet.
A report alleges a prime Azamabad parcel near RTC Crossroads is being carved up for a private mill for ₹87.44 crore. The public record, so far, confirms the policy — not the handover.
A report claims a private venture cut a road through “Rs 100 crore” worth of government land at Medchal and kept using it after demolition. The math might add up — the paperwork doesn’t. Until officials put the record on the table, this stays an allegation, not a verdict.
