Plethora of issues await Revanth's attention

LB Nagar: People are pinning hopes on Malkajgiri MP Revanth Reddy to resolve a slew of issues facing them in LB Nagar constituency. The people have been facing several civic issues for many years, and they are eagerly waiting for Revanth Reddy to address those issues and fulfill the promises he made during the election campaign.

Some major issues that the people want him to pay attention to are as follows:

1. Agamaya Nagar, Hakimabad, Ganesh Nagar, Sri Saraswathi Nagar, Jayapuri Colony, South End Park, Adarsh Nagar, Sathavahana Nagar, Kakatiya Nagar, Gunti Jangayya Nagar and 23 more low-lying areas in LB Nagar division are getting water-logged in the rainy season, and it is forcing the people of the areas to stay at home. They demand permanent solution to the issue.
2. Even after merging the municipalities into Greater Hyderabad, some of the colonies are plagued by acute shortage of drinking water. Though HUDCO funds of 325 crore were released for the pipeline, the works are moving at a snail's pace. They should be expedited on a war-footing, the people
3. There are many stage artists in this area performing many shows around the country, but lack of an auditorium in this area is a drawback to exhibit their talent. It will be a dream comes true for locals here if an auditorium like Ravindra Bharathi is built in this area.
4. Highway line to Pochampally from Kamineni junction to Mansurabad Sri Ram Nagar Junction is sanctioned with 1.9 crore, but the work has stopped, as it is impinging on forest department lands. Lack of cooperation between the GHMC officials and the forest department is affecting the process of work. People plead with a wayout should be found and the works resumed.
5. There are some properties in Urban Land Ceiling (ULB) zone at Mansurabad, BN Reddy Nagar and Nagole division. People received notices after 40 years of implementation of ULC Act. Nearly 2,000 people have problems with the ULC act. People in these areas appeal to the MP to resolve the problem, as it is not right to implement the ULC Act after a gap of 40 years.
