In a major crackdown, authorities conducted a *Hydra operation* in Gajularamaram, freeing over *300 acres of government land* valued at approximately ₹15,000 crore from illegal occupation. The recovered land was originally allocated to the *State Finance Corporation*.
During the operation, encroachments set up under the names of influential individuals and some unauthorized sheds by marginalized residents were demolished under heavy police security. The operation aimed to restore government property and prevent further illegal settlements.
Officials emphasized that such actions are necessary to protect state assets and ensure proper utilization of land for public and developmental purposes. The Hydra operation also signals a strict approach against illegal encroachments and sets a precedent for future enforcement drives. Authorities have assured continued vigilance and pledged to prevent unauthorized occupation across the state.
This operation is part of the government’s ongoing effort to safeguard valuable public land.
