HYDRAA Clears Encroached Public Lands Across Hyderabad
Imagine your city has special land set aside for everyone to use, like a park or a place for community events.
Some people who were not supposed to have it started using it as their own private property.
A special agency called HYDRAA heard about this problem from people in the city.
They went to check the areas and found that the complaints were true.
So, they removed the illegal structures, put up fences, and put signs saying the land belongs to everyone.
This happened in a park in Hastinapur and another community area in Chandanagar.
HYDRAA wants to make sure these public spaces are kept safe for everyone to enjoy.
HYDRAA conducted operations to clear encroached public lands on Tuesday.
Encroachments were removed from a park in Hastinapur and a community-use site in Chandanagar Circle.
The operations followed complaints received through the Prajavani programme.
In Hastinapur, 1.27 acres of park land was recovered; in Chandanagar, 700 square yards of community land was restored.
HYDRAA secured the recovered lands with fencing and signboards to prevent future encroachment.
