Telangana Land Inclusion Under Section 22A Sparks Calls for Judicial Inquiry
In Telangana, concerns have arisen over the inclusion of certain lands under Section 22A of the Registration Act, which restricts transactions involving disputed or government land. BRS leader T. Harish Rao criticized the Congress government for allegedly adding properties without controversy to the prohibited list, affecting about 1,500 families in Boduppal. Union Minister G Kishan Reddy called for a judicial inquiry and urged transparency, while also cautioning against politicizing related issues. The state government updated the prohibited properties list in April 2026, prompting public unease.
