Telangana authorities have opened an inquiry into alleged illegal farmhouses owned by senior BRS politicians, including a property linked to Jagadish Reddy.
The anti-corruption wing of the Telangana police announced on Monday that it has commenced a formal investigation into several farmhouses allegedly constructed in violation of land‑use regulations. The probe focuses on properties linked to senior members of the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), with particular attention on a farmhouse associated with legislator Jagadish Reddy.
According to the police statement, preliminary evidence suggests that the structures were built without the requisite approvals and may involve encroachment of agricultural land. Officials have ordered a detailed survey of the sites and are seeking documentation from the owners to verify compliance with state planning laws.
The move comes amid heightened political tension in the state, as opposition parties have repeatedly accused the BRS government of flouting its own regulations. The investigation is expected to be overseen by senior officials, and any violations could lead to penalties or legal action against the individuals involved.
The police have not disclosed the exact number of farmhouses under scrutiny, but the inquiry is being conducted in coordination with the state revenue department. Further updates will be provided as the investigation progresses.
