KTR Makes HYDRAA Demolitions a Pivotal Election Issue in Hyderabad

The BRS leader pledges to back displaced families facing allegations of illegal and selective bulldozing.

Overview

  • Victims presented testimonies and a photo exhibition at Telangana Bhavan on November 2 describing homes and shops razed without notice and widespread loss of livelihoods.
  • Several residents alleged that valid documents and court stay orders were ignored, with no independent verification provided in the reports.
  • K.T. Rama Rao vowed to pursue remedies in court, raise the matter in the Assembly, and organize street‑level protests on behalf of affected families.
  • He accused the Revanth Reddy government of sparing influential figures while targeting poor localities and cast the Jubilee Hills by‑election as a choice between the BRS Car and a Congress Bulldozer.
  • Accounts included claims that children and other vulnerable people were forced out before demolitions and that small businesses were torn down with little or no time to vacate.
