Congress-BRS Row Over 400 Acres Near Hyderabad University
The 400 acres of land in the Kancha Gachibowli village in the IT corridor of Hyderabad has become the Ground Zero of a massive political row in the state, with the Congress government laying claim to it.
What sparked it off was the students' protests over the government move to clear the land, bordering the varsity campus, on which it plans to set up an IT park.
The students claim the area is home to over 455 species of flora and fauna. The Telangana Government has reiterated that it is not forest land.
