HYDRAA, the anti-encroachment agency in Telangana, has become a central figure in the state's political discourse. With CM Revanth Reddy's aggressive stance against illegal constructions, opposition parties BRS and BJP are feeling the heat.
The demolition of N Convention in Madhapur, owned by actor Nagarjuna, was a significant milestone for HYDRAA. While the incident occurred weeks ago, its reverberations continue to be felt, with BRS actively seeking to exploit the situation.
Today, BRS spokesperson Balka Suman leveled serious allegations against Revanth Reddy, claiming that the CM demanded Rs 400 crore from Nagarjuna to spare N Convention. When Nagarjuna refused, the property was demolished. Suman also alleged that Revanth accepted bribes from other illegal constructions, such as Ananda Convention, which encroached on Himayat Sagar lake.
These allegations have ignited a political firestorm, with Congress supporters expressing their frustration at BRS's attempts to tarnish CM Revanth Reddy's image. Despite HYDRAA's successful efforts to dismantle illegal constructions and recover valuable waterbody lands, BRS seems determined to paint a picture of corruption and abuse of power.
As the political battle intensifies, the future of HYDRAA and its impact on Telangana remains uncertain. The allegations raised by BRS will undoubtedly be subject to further scrutiny and investigation, potentially shaping the course of the state's political landscape.
