Vijayawada Residents Demand House Deeds, Rooftop Conversions
Imagine people have lived in their homes for a long time, even through tough times like floods.
They built a wall to protect their homes.
Now, they want the government to officially recognize their homes by giving them legal documents.
They are asking the government to give them 'deeds' that prove they own their houses, and also allow them to build on top of their houses.
They wonder why the government is taking so long to do this, especially when they know the government has done it for other people nearby.
Residents of Krishna river bund in Vijayawada protested, demanding registered house deeds and rooftop conversion permissions.
The protest involved residents from Ranadive Nagar, Taraka Rama Nagar, Bhupesh Gupta Nagar, and Ramalingeswara Nagar.
CPM leaders, including Ch Babu Rao, supported the protest, highlighting the residents' long-term residence.
Protesters questioned why deeds haven't been issued despite the completion of a retaining wall.
The Krishna Karakatta Protection Committee fought for the construction of the retaining wall.
