- The Telangana Assembly continued a short discussion on Section 22A of the Registrations Act during its monsoon session, with Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy speaking on the issue in the afternoon.
- Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said nearly 98,31,320 acres of land must stay on the prohibited properties list to prevent encroachment and protect government assets.
- The lands under Section 22A include around 24,63,940 acres of assignment lands, around 42 lakh acres of forest lands, around 29 lakh acres of State and Central government lands, and around 5.12 lakh acres under endowments and waqf.
- Reddy stated the actual dispute between the government and private entities covers only 3,72,930 acres of private land, while claims suggest one crore acres is under the prohibited properties list.
- The issue matters because removing even an inch of land from the list, according to the Chief Minister, would amount to injustice to people and open the way for encroachment of forest lands.
