Hyderabad: Condemning the Telangana government policy of acquiring land by force, Telangana YSR Congress Party has demanded a compensation of Rs 25 lakh per acre for the Tadakapalli reservoir. ‘Redesigning the reservoir is aimed at benefitting KCR’s constituency Gajwel and the acquisition of land by force is highly condemnable,’ party leaders Nalla Surya Prakash and Konda Raghava Reddy told reporters here on Friday.

Using police force for acquiring land is undemocratic and redesigning the project is absolutely not necessary, they said. Since the land acquired is fertile we demand that the compensation amount should be fixed at Rs 25 lakh per acre, they said. They also flayed TDP leader Revant Reddy and his party’s double standards on various issues.
