Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Siddipet MLA T Harish Rao blamed the Congress government for the poor performance of the real estate sector in Telangana.
On Friday, January 31, he said under Congress rule, farmers, weavers, auto drivers, and now real estate builders are being pushed to commit suicide due to the government’s inefficient policies and failure to provide economic stability.
Citing the tragic suicide of a builder in Medchal district, Harish Rao said that Hyderabad which flourished as a real estate hub under the BRS governance had now turned into a graveyard for builders due to the present government’s mismanagement.

The former Telangana finance minister blamed the collapse of the real estate sector on a series of reckless decisions, including demolition drives by HYDRAA (Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Monitoring and Protection Agency ) against legally approved constructions, inconsistent announcements on Pharma City and Hyderabad Metro corridors, forced collection for building approvals, lack of new investments, and failing law and order.
The senior BRS leader reminded Telangana chief minister A Revanth Reddy of his past as a realtor. “As a realtor, Revanth Reddy once boasted about his knowledge of real estate. But today, his misgovernance is destroying the real estate sector,” Rao said in an X post.
