BJP Announces Maha Dharna Over Telangana 22A Land Restrictions
The BJP says many people in Telangana cannot freely use or sell their land.
These lands are on a government list called the Section 22A prohibited properties list.
The party says some land was added without proper justification.
It claims the problem affects thousands of landowners and many acres of land.
BJP leaders say farmers and middle-class families have possessed some of the land for decades.
They also say the restrictions make it hard for families to pay for important needs.
The BJP will hold a protest in Khammam on Thursday.
It is asking the government to help the affected landowners.
The government’s response was not included in the report.
The Bharatiya Janata Party will hold a Maha Dharna at Dharna Chowk near the Khammam Collectorate on Thursday.
The protest concerns lands included in the Section 22A prohibited properties list.
BJP district president Nelluri Koteswara Rao alleged that the Telangana government has failed to resolve the issue.
