Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Protection Agency (HYDRAA) Commissioner AV Ranganath conducted a field-level inspection in response to various complaints received through Prajavani on Thursday.
He examined the encroachment of the Nakka Vagu near Praneeth County in the Patancheru area. The canal, which should be 36 meters wide including the buffer zone, was found to be encroached upon up to half its width. The Commissioner directed the parties concerned to submit documents related to construction approvals. He instructed that if the canal does not meet regulatory width standards, the encroachments must be removed.
Upon receiving a complaint about encroachment on a plot in Masjid Banda area, claiming it as Jangamkunta, the Commissioner inspected the site. He also looked into a complaint about encroachment on government land in Kishta Reddy Peta under Ameenpur Municipality limits.
The Commissioner assured existing residents who have already built homes there that they need not worry, but future encroachments will be strictly prevented.
He advised locals to immediately report any irregularities occurring under the pretext of HYDRAA to the authorities.
Later, he inspected the Food Corporation of India layout in Gachibowli. The layout roads and parks were reportedly erased and used commercially in the name of conventions; the Commissioner reviewed this misuse. He also examined a complaint in Neknampur where a wall was built under high-tension power lines, obstructing a public road.
Complaints of encroachments on community spaces and public utility areas within the Neknampur layout were also investigated. The Commissioner reviewed encroachments on government land in Survey Number 20 of Neknampur, Gandipet mandal.
He later visited the Gandipet lake and a complaint was examined regarding sewage from Khanapur and Nagulapalli merging into Gandipet lake via the Bulkapur canal.
