HYDERABAD: In the aftermath of the demolition of N-Convention, several ruling party legislators have written to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, praising his decision to establish Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Monitoring and Protection Agency (HYDRAA) and requesting him to expand its ambit to their respective constituencies.

In separate letters to the chief minister, the legislators said that HYDRAA should be extended to their respective segments to protect lakes, water bodies and illegal constructions in FTL and buffer zones.

Government Whips Aadi Srinivas, Adluri Laxman Kumar and Bheerla Illaiah, MLAs Kavvampalli Satyanarayana, Vemula Veeresham, Kale Yadaiah and Veerlapalli Shankar as well as MLC T Jeevan Reddy were among those who wrote to the CM requesting that HYDRAA units be set up in their respective segments to curb unauthorised construction and protect government lands.

Bheerla Illaiah requested the expansion of HYDRAA to identify illegal constructions in the Alair Assembly constituency.
