TPCC President Revanth Reddy said the Congress will soon release its Dharani files and that they will give a PowerPoint presentation with evidence. He also demanded that the Centre should find out who all have invested in the Dharani portal.
Speaking to the media on Thursday, Revanth said that Terrasys is the only company known to the public regarding Dharani. But there is a big mafia behind this.
“In this connection, we will release the Dharani Files serial along with evidence. We will make a PowerPoint presentation on the Dharani loot with evidence,” he said.
He challenged Union Tourism Minister Telangana BJP President G. Kishan Reddy to ask the Central Government to find out have invested in Dharani.
He said that the properties, lands and personal details of Indians are going into the hands of foreigners through Dharani.
“The Dharani portal has investments from the British Isles. The whole of Dharani was in the hands of the Prince’s friend Gade Sridhar. This is worse than robbery. Lakhs of acres of government lands are disappearing. We have all the details.The management of the Dharani portal has gone into the hands of foreigners and all details are in their hands. This is dangerous,” said Revanth.
“Those who have invested in the company running the Dharani portal are financial criminals. There are foreigners among those who are operating Dharani. We don’t know whose hands are controlling Dharani, whether he is a mafia leader bigger than Dawood Ibrahim or a drug lord who sells drugs all over the world. All our details have gone into the hands of foreigners through Dharani. After many changing of hands, finally, Dharani went to the British Island. Exploiting the shortcomings in the Dharani portal, lands in the prohibited list are being registered to their agents. Prohibited government lands are locked immediately after registering in the names of their agents. The entire Dharani portal is now in the hands of KTR’s friend Sridhar Gade,” he said.
He explained that Sridhar can open Dharani at any time using the lock, and the land in one’s name can be changed to another’s name. Revanth revealed that owners are being created for government lands and these lands are being transferred and then sold after making them into residential layouts. This is how the matter is going on, Revanth said.
He said that KCR’s family is looting public assets using the Dharani portal. Sridhar Gade alias Gade Sridhar Raju is the brain behind this. The software programmes are being managed by a company named Quantella in the Hi-Tech City area.
Revanth said that the M. Kodanda Reddy Committee conducted a field-level inspection and acquired basic details about many land irregularities.
They have also tried to give away Endowment lands illegally to pharma companies. KCR is afraid of scrapping the Dharani portal and is misleading the public. “We will scrap Dharani and create a better portal. We will also expose KCR’s land irregularities and will reveal all Dharani irregularities after July 15,” he said.
Revanth said that if the Centre is committed, the financial crimes behind Dharani can be exposed. He said that the government has illegally grabbed 1,500 acres of assigned land in Gajwel. Hundreds of acres were given to Amul Dairy. Lands were allotted to Minister Gangula Kamalakar, he said.
Revanth said that endowment lands were given to pharma companies violating High Court orders. That is why KCR and KTR are against scrapping Dharani, he added.
He said that after KTR’s recent New Delhi trip, seeds were planted to strengthen the bond between the BJP and the BRS.
The Congress also released its land declaration at the Gandhi Bhavan on Thursday.
The declaration said:
1. Considering the difficulties faced by lakhs of farmers due to the errors in Dharani, we will scrap it and replace it with a new computerised record which will reflect the actual condition of the land and is free of errors and will be accessible to all.
