Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has said that Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (HYDRAA) will continue its action against encroachments.
Hailing the agency, he described it as one of the Congress government’s most important initiatives.

Expressing satisfaction over the development, the Chief Minister said it was encouraging to see Hyderabad changing through the restoration of its lakes. He said rejuvenating lakes would help secure a better future for coming generations.
He congratulated HYDRAA officials and staff for their work in restoring Uppal Nalla Cheruvu. He added that protecting lakes is not only about conserving water resources but also about safeguarding the future. The government, he said, will continue to protect every lake and preserve every inch of public property.
