Urges Hima Kohli to declare the auction illegal
Lake activist and general secretary and spokesperson of the Socialist Party (India) Lubna Sarwat has flagged serious violations in the auction of HMDA lands at Kokapet, saying the lands fall into the 500-1,000 metre range of the Gandipet. Ms. Sarwat raised these issues and more in an urgent letter mailed to Chief Justice of Telangana High Court Hima Kohli urging her to declare the auction illegal. HMDA layout juxtaposed with the satellite imagery of the Kokapet and Golden Mile layout using the geo-coordinates provided by HMDA notification reveal that the land fell in the proximity of 500 metres to one kilometre range from the draft FTL boundary of the historical Osmansagar, the letter said.
