Following the directions of the Andhra Pradesh High Court, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) on Monday took up demolition of a building of former Mayor of Kadapa, Ravindranath Reddy, at Road No. 5, Jubilee Hills.

Mr. Reddy is also the brother-in-law of former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy.

According to GHMC officials, the directions were given on Friday treating the building as unauthorised, following which the demolition was taken up at the ground floor plus structure, with police protection today.

“There was a title dispute of this property in the court and on receiving the demolition order, our staff partially demolished three slabs today,” said an official.

The exercise would continue tomorrow morning also to demolish the columns and beams of the property that was built on some 350 square yards, he said.
