Army Jawan from Telangana urges government to aid in land grab issue

An Indian Army Jawan in a video alleged that his six-acre land has been grabbed by local revenue authorities located at his village called Chityal in Tadwai mandal of Kamareddy district.

Sappeta Swamy who is posted at Jammu and Kashmir alleged that a person named Pippiri Anjaneyulu has grabbed his agricultural land by getting hold of their documents of his land. He further said that the officer threatened to his parents if they entered the land.

In the two-minute video, the Swamy said that he received no response from the revenue officials when he complained about the matter. "Anjaneyulu, a rich and powerful man from Ugravai in Kamareddy has been harassing our family for one year. He even has beaten up me when I went to see the land," said Sappeta Swamy.
