Court Bars HYDRAA from Land Action in Bullet Train Row
The Telangana High Court has told HYDRAA not to do anything to 26.06 acres of land in Bahadurguda village until the next hearing.
This land is part of a bigger 650-acre area that the government wants for a bullet train project.
Some people who say they own the land asked the court to stop HYDRAA from coming onto their land and fencing it off.
They said they have been farming there since 1989-90.
HYDRAA says the people didn't show proper papers to prove they own the land.
The court is looking into this.
Telangana High Court directed HYDRAA not to take coercive action against 26.06 acres of land in Bahadurguda village.
The land is part of a 650-acre parcel being acquired for the proposed bullet train project.
Petitioners claim to have owned and farmed the land since 1989-90 under valid registered sale deeds.
HYDRAA disputes the petitioners' ownership claims, stating they failed to produce valid documents.
The court heard the case as a lunch-motion writ filed by Jakkidi Yadi Reddy and three other residents of Bahadurguda.
