The former MLA claimed land in Warangal was worth around ₹1.5 lakh per square yard. However, he alleged that KUDA auctioned it for about ₹60,000 per square yard on June 21. He further claimed Nayini Rajender Reddy participated in the auction through a syndicate.
Dasyam also questioned why KUDA conducted the auction offline instead of adopting an online tender process. He alleged that officials auctioned a 2.27-acre property inside the KUDA office.
He further alleged that the auction caused a revenue loss of around ₹70 crore.
The Congress leaders and KUDA officials had not publicly responded to the allegations at the time of reporting.
