Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao questioned the propriety of allocating hundreds of acres for universities and said it was not the Maharaja rule to grant so many acres to the university campus.
But his critics immediately shot back at KCR pointing out as to why he has been staying in a 14-acre camp office.
Leader of Opposition in Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir sought to know why KCR can’t utilise 14 acres of his official residence, instead of taking away land belonging to Osmania University, for the construction of weaker sections housing.
Shabbir Ali said KCR is presently residing in a sprawling bungalow of nearly three acres at Kundan Bagh. He is also acquiring adjacent building of IAS Officers Association of 11.5 acres for his residence.
“Why KCR need so much of space for himself and his wife? About 1,000 square yards should be sufficient for the residential purpose. The remaining land can be used to build houses for poor people,” Shabbir Ali said.
While last Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan stayed in 6-acre King Koti palace, KCR’s want to live in 14 acres as he behaves like a ‘Double Nizam’.
Shabbir Ali said the move to convert CM’s camp office into a housing project would be the easiest decision.
“He can begin the construction in just one hour. Having served as Hyderabad District Incharge Minister for five years from 2004-2009, I can identify 10 more such places which can be used for weaker section housing. But KCR should take the initiative by giving away his official residence,” he said.
