Hyderabad : In a shocking
development, the Telangana Government has banned registration of plots in
several localities in tech famous Madhapur in Serilingampally Mandal, Ranga
Reddy district, declaring it as government land.
The lands are around Hitech City,
star hotels, business establishments and other commercial establishments.
Scores of skyscrapers, multistory buildings have already come up while some
plots are still vacant in the area.
Patrika Nagar, where several
journalists had bought plots spread over 20 acres many years ago, too has come
under the prohibited list.
These lands have been declared the
government’s property and categorised under the Kancha Sarkari, Porambok,
Khariz Khata, and Urban Land Ceiling Act, placing them on the Prohibited list.
The price of a plot per square
yard ranges from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 3 lakh and more in the open market.
The decision has left scores of
plot owners including journalists of Patrika Nagar to run around Ranga Reddy
District collectorate and higher revenue officials since they had purchased the
plots two decades back and this development has come as bolt from the blue.
They are trying to delist the land parcels in question from the prohibited
list.
Ranga Reddy District Collector
wrote to the Commissioner and Inspector General (Registration and Stamps),
Hyderabad to ban registrations in several survey numbers under Properties under
section 22-A (1) (a) of the prohibition Act 1908 for prohibition.
Government lands
The prohibited lands have been now
categorised Kancha Sarkari-government land, Porambok-government land, Khariz
Khata—State government, and a large number in Urban Land Ceiling (ULC) Act.
A senior GHMC official remarked,
“The decision will create another Ayyappa Society issue and leave plot/land
owners who purchased decades ago in deep distress. Can the government pull down
already constructed buildings on land that has been declared government land
now?”
But some say it’s a ploy to
collect more LRS (Layout Regularisation Scheme) fees from the cash-starved
Congress government from plot owners.
The prohibited list in Madhapur
village of Serilingampally mandal in Ranga Reddy district includes survey No
64, 645.16 acres under TSIIC, (Kancha Sarkari government land) 5.25 acre of
Police Department (Poramboku Government land).
Other scores of acres of
prohibition lands include in the following survey no & sub division in
Madhapur village, Serilingampally Mandal, Ranga Reddy district:
Poramboku (State government): 1,

to 59, 85, 86, 20 to 25, 42, 88/2, 77, 78, 31 to 41.
Though the orders were issued in
January, it has come to light recently and plot owners have rushed to Ranga
Reddy district collector to seek clarification and are trying to seek
withdrawal of their plots from the prohibited list.
“We were shocked when we got the
information. We have paid all the taxes and are planning to construct a house.
It has come from a bolt from the blue. The plot was purchased years ago, and we
have paid all the taxes,” lamented a plot owner.
Collector order
Ranga Reddy district collector
directions include the district collectors shall furnish lists of immovable
properties falling under clauses (a) and (b) of subsection 1 of section 22-A
including any subsequent additions, deletions or modifications to the District

The District Collectors shall
furnish a list of land declared as surplus under the Andhra Pradesh Land
Reforms (Ceiling on Agricultural Holdings) Act, 1973 and the Urban Land Ceiling
