Bhu Bharati Act will resolve land issues ignored by previous BRS regime: Minister

Hyderabad, Apr 18 (UNI) Telangana Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy on Friday launched the Bhu Bharati pilot project at Venkatapur in Mulugu district, marking a major step toward resolving long-standing land issues in the state.
The initiative was inaugurated in the presence of Ministers Konda Surekha and Anasuya Seethakka.
Later, Ponguleti addressed an awareness programme in Pusai village in Adilabad district , where he spoke in detail about the Bhu Bharati Act.
The Minister stated that out of 18 lakh acres of land pushed into Part-B by the previous BRS government in what he termed a conspiratorial move, nearly 6 to 7 lakh acres are agricultural lands, which will now be regularised under the Bhu Bharati Act. “We brought this Act to wipe the tears of the poor and to build a state free from land disputes, fulfilling the vision of Indiramma Rajya,” he said.
Highlighting the government’s farmer-friendly approach, the Minister said, “Gone are the days when farmers had to run around revenue offices. Now, officials will come to them to resolve their land-related issues.”
He criticised the previous BRS administration, accusing it of failing to hold revenue conferences on the Dharani portal and ignoring the plight of landowners. “If such conferences had been held, people would have revolted then itself,” he said.
Taking a direct jab at former Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), Ponguleti said, “If KCR brought the Dharani Act in 2020 for the Pink Party, we have brought the 2025 Bhu Bharati Act for the people. That Act could have been thrown into the Bay of Bengal, but this Act will protect the common man.”

The Minister also announced that the government is taking steps to regularise Abadi houses, which have long remained undocumented. He vowed to resist any attempt to destabilise the Indiramma government through money power or vested interests. “Will you stay silent if this people’s government is toppled by Dharani dalals and Gulabi Party slaves?” he asked, receiving a resounding “No” from the crowd.
To enhance transparency and accessibility, Ponguleti said a toll-free helpline connecting the Revenue Department and the Chief Commissioner of Land Administration (CCLA) office would soon be launched to address Bhu Bharati-related queries.
He also announced that a committee will be formed under Central Government guidelines to find a lasting solution to land disputes in tribal and non-tribal areas.
