Birds Of The Same Feather!

Birds Of The Same Feather!

The State may have been bifurcated but the miseries of the people in both States seem to have taken a turn for the worse under Chandrababu Naidu and KCR.

In Andhra Pradesh, Naidu is grabbing the fertile agricultural lands in the name of new capital region.

In Telangana, it is KCR who in the name of ‘Bangaru Telangana’ is grabbing lands for various projects whether it be the development of Yadagirigutta or his proposed Pharma City.

The state government had announced the Pharma City, which will house bulk drug manufacturing units in an extent of 11,000 acres at Mucherla and surrounding areas.

A major chunk of the 11,000 acres is in Kandukur mandal. Official sources said 500 acres private patta land and 1,000 acres assigned land would be taken over. Though the government is yet to serve notices for land acquisition, villagers of Mucherla, Saireddygudem, Hanmaspally, Kurmidda, Thadipatri and Kadtal have started protesting the move.

Interestingly, the agitation is being led by Telangana United Forum (TUF) co-chairperson Vimalakka, who has already held several meetings in these villages against the project.

“The proposed Pharma City will spell doom for the area. The farmers have been cultivating the assigned land since 1952. Now the state wants to take over the land from the farmers in the name of Pharma City, which will ultimately pollute the entire area,” said Vimalakka.
