    Telangana High Court Orders Removal of BRS Party Office in Nalgonda

    Hyderabad: On Wednesday, the Telangana High Court, under the Single Bench of Justice T. Vinod Kumar, ordered the removal of the illegally constructed Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) party office in Nalgonda. The court gave the party 15 days to take down the building. Additionally, the court directed the BRS party to pay a fine of ₹1 lakh to the District Legal Service Authority (DLSA), Nalgonda, within four weeks. The fine was imposed because the party office was built without obtaining prior permission from the Nalgonda Municipality.

    Justice T. Vinod Kumar criticized the BRS party for constructing its office on a one-acre plot of land in Nalgonda without proper authorization. The party later attempted to regularize the construction by submitting an application under the Building Regularisation Scheme. The judge expressed concern over this move and noted that the BRS party, while in power, had created rules but then violated them. He emphasized that the law applies equally to both common citizens and political parties.

    During the hearing, the BRS party’s lawyer requested that the party be exempted from paying the ₹1 lakh fine. However, Justice Kumar immediately rejected the plea, stating that the BRS party is financially strong and capable of paying the fine.

    The case was brought to court after the BRS party challenged a notice issued by the Municipal Commissioner of Nalgonda. The notice, dated July 20th, 2024, instructed the party to remove the unauthorized construction within 15 days. The BRS party disputed this notice by filing a Writ Petition.

    The BRS office in question was built on a one-acre plot located in Survey Nos. 1498 and 1506 in Nalgonda village and Mandal. The land was allocated for the party office during the BRS party’s time in power through two government orders (G.O. No. 167 dated August 16, 2018, and G.O. 66 dated June 21, 2019). However, the court found that these allocations violated existing rules.
