A PIL was filed alleging that land was given by the government to the BRS party offices in the district including in Hyderabad city.
During the hearing today, the petitioner’s lawyer Chikudu Prabhakar argued that the recent government land was sold to the public at Rs. 100 crores per acre, while the KCR government has allotted to his party office Rs. 100 per sq. yard. The petitioner told the court that Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao is not filing a counter in this case. He objected that the counter is not being filed despite giving notices 16 months ago.
