BJP Urges Removal of Poor Families’ Properties from 22-A List
The BJP asked officials to remove some homes and plots from a restricted property list.
These properties are in Rekurthi, Vidyanagar and other parts of Karimnagar district.
BJP leaders said many affected families are poor.
They said the families bought their plots with their own savings.
Some families have lived on the properties for many years.
Because of the restrictions, they cannot easily register or sell their properties.
The leaders said owners were not informed before some properties were added to the list.
They want officials to fix the problem quickly and warned of protests.
