HYDRAA urges buyers to verify lake FTL limits, layout approvals before purchasing plots in Hyderabad
HYDERABAD: The Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency (HYDRAA) has advised prospective buyers to verify all legal and environmental details before purchasing plots or house sites in the city.
The warning comes after the agency received multiple complaints through the Prajavani grievance platform regarding disputed land, illegal layouts and encroachments.
Complaints flagged over layouts and lake buffer zones
Officials said buyers must check the Full Tank Level (FTL) limits of lakes, layout approvals and necessary permissions for gated communities before finalising property deals.
Failure to verify these details has led to several disputes, particularly in areas close to lakes and open spaces, according to HYDRAA.
