Administration rejects over 75,000 regularisation applications
Hyderabad- Rangareddy district administration has rejected more than 75,000 applications with regard to regularisation of encroached government land as the applicants failed to furnish proper proof to confirm from when they possessed those plots.
The applicants were asked to provide proof to show that they have been holding the possession of the land before 2003 itself but some of them failed to furnish while some of them had even produced fake documents.
The administration has powers to declare the rejected applicants as land grabbers and reclaim government land at any time. But yet the government has not given any instructions for the rejected applicants. According to sources, the revenue department had a review meeting on the land regularisation scheme recently and by February-end, orders are likely to be issued.
A government order, GO 166, had been issued in 2008 to regularise encroached government land which was concluded in September the same year. Later the government directed regularisation of the encroached land by collecting penal amount in cases where the land was occupied prior to 2003.
Following the order, 90,677 people had submitted applications for regularisation in the district, among which 72,985 applicants were from surrounding mandals like Serilingampally, Uppal, Bala Nagar, Hayathnagar, Qutubullapur, Saroornagar, Rajendranagar and Keesara mandals in Greater Hyderabad and another 17,692 applications were from the rural areas of Ranga Reddy district like Vikarabad and Tandur.
The RR district administration received the highest number of applications, 23,900 from Qutubullapur, 18,000 from Serilingampally and 11,000 from Balanagar mandals.
Without collecting penal amount, the plots having up to 80 square yards area were regularised while the plots with 81 sq yards to 2,000 sq yards were cleared after collecting penal amount.
The applications for plots with up to 250 sq yards are to be cleared by district-level committee headed by collector. Plots having 251 sq yards to 500 sq yards area are cleared by chief commissioner of land administration (CCLA). It is the state government’s responsibility to clear plots with area ranging between 500 sq yards to 2,000 sq yards.
Overall, only 7,336 cases covering 155 acres were regularised while 75,549 applications have been rejected. Another 4,205 cases were kept in abeyance due to court cases. The CCLA had approved 994 cases of 1,012 submitted and 351 cases were sent to the state government.
Many applicants had occupied land after 2003 and many had occupied after the GO 166 was issued, revealed official sources. Some people even sold residential certificates which was found to be fabricated. However, through the regularisation scheme, the administration has till now collected about Rs 17 crore and is expecting another Rs 32 crore from eligible applications.
