Andhra Pradesh - Hyderabad   

House-site pattas demanded

By Our Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD, FEB. 7. B. V. Raghavulu, secretary of the State Committee of the Communist Party of India(Marxist), has demanded house site `pattas' to the 364 families whose huts were removed from Bathukamma Kunta in Bagh Amberpet area on January 31.

In an appeal to the Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu, Mr. Raghavulu, said these hut dwellers belonging to SC and ST communities were staying on a land declared surplus under the land ceiling law, for the last 25 years, giving it the name of "Ramakrishna Huts". They were recognised so by the Government and they had voting right. Some of them had ration cards. Yet the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad and Revenue authorities with the help of Police razed the huts to the ground, displacing them overnight. Some of them were injured in the operation. The Government should review the entire issue, allot house site `pattas' and build houses for them, he demanded.
