The government of Telangana state has issued orders for the regularisation of encroached lands in Hyderabad and other parts of the state. The scheme is known as House site or Plot Regularisation scheme.
Under this scheme the government lands which are occupied by poor people for housing purpose will be regularised by the government. The application process for the scheme has already been started.
The plot of areas measuring 125 square yards, and upto a maximum of 500 square yards will be regularised under this scheme. The applicants should provide a proof of residence such as Aadhaar Card / electricity bill, ration card, etc.
The application forms are available in the offices of the district collectors of the concerned district. The government has stopped the regularisation of encroached lands of area 500 square yards after evaluating the chances of misuse of the scheme by land grabbers.
