**Hyderabad, [Date]:** The Telangana government’s investment promotion agency, the Telangana Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (TGIIC), has issued a statement clarifying the ownership of 400 acres of land in Gachibowli. The TGIIC asserted that the land belongs to the state government and that no portion of it belongs to the Hyderabad Central University (HCU), contrary to claims made by some opposing the development project.
The TGIIC stated that the government legally secured the land, refuting claims of private ownership. A thorough survey confirmed the absence of any HCU land within the 400-acre plot, which the government intends to use for IT infrastructure development. The agency also denied the existence of any lakes or environmentally sensitive areas within the planned development zone, emphasizing that the project will not negatively impact existing rock formations.
The TGIIC further addressed concerns raised by some political leaders and students, stating that the project prioritizes sustainable development and environmental protection. The agency strongly refuted claims that the land is forest land, asserting that revenue records clearly show it as government property. The TGIIC maintained that the development aligns with the government’s goal of improving IT infrastructure, connectivity, and urban space availability.
