Is Ponguleti's farmhouse also in trouble?

The Hydra team in Hyderabad is taking tough action against illegal constructions in the state. Incidentally, Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy's farmhouse has now also come under fire.

Finance Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy said that if even a single brick was found to be in the level of the tank or in the buffer zone of any water body, HYDRA officials and BRS leaders would be free to demolish his house.

“In fact, I request the BRS leaders and HYDRA to survey my land. If anything is illegal, demolish it. If necessary, I will accompany HYDRA officer AV Ranganath throughout the exercise,” the finance minister said.

Pointing out that the house he lives in is registered in his son's name, he said, “I welcome KT Rama Rao and Harish Rao to come home and survey the land. If it violates FTL or buffer zone norms, I will fully support its demolition.”
