KTR Seeks Probe into PM Ekta Mall Tender Alleging Irregularities in HyderabadPreviousNext

BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao has alleged financial irregularities in the Rs 2,059-crore PM Ekta Mall tender in Hyderabad, urging the Centre to cancel the tender, halt fund releases, and order an independent probe. He criticized the Telangana government's tender conditions, led by Revanth Reddy, for potentially favoring a private developer with double the commercial space compared to the government's share, despite the project involving prime public land and Central funding. The developer consortium includes Vamsiram Builders and Aparna Infrahousing.
