Revanth Reddy orders probe into KCR farmhouse land in Siddipet
Revanth Reddy said agricultural landholding limits prescribed for different categories of land had also been violated in some cases.
Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has ordered a thorough investigation into the land holdings of Bharat Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) at his farmhouse in Erravelli, Siddipet district. Reacting to a discussion on the inclusion of private lands in the prohibited list under Section 22-A of the Registration Act, Reddy questioned officials of the revenue department to verify if the entire 700-acre property associated with KCR's farmhouse was legally held by him.
The CM mentioned that the probe would be completed within 30 days, and if proved illegal, steps would be taken to confiscate the land and distribute it among the poor. Reddy alleged that KCR's family owned 439 acres across 31 villages in 24 mandals covering nine districts, including 388 acres of government land. He also accused other BRS leaders of encroaching on government land for their farmhouses and violating agricultural landholding limits.
