Telangana has permitted registration of properties listed under Section 22-A if they hold valid layout, building or apartment approvals from authorities such as GHMC, HMDA, DTCP or municipal bodies. Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy announced the decision on Thursday, saying the move follows Chief Minister Revanth Reddy's assembly assurance on September 16 to fast-track land dispute resolution. Applicants must submit a link document for a transaction registered after the relevant approval was granted.

District-level committees headed by Collectors will examine cases and resolve registration issues. The committees will include the District Registrar and representatives of HMDA and local bodies. The minister said each case would be assessed on land records, statutory permissions and legal status. He cited recent steps including GO 118 for regularising houses in 64 colonies in Rangareddy and Medchal-Malkajgiri districts, and GO 76 for Singareni workers' housing. The government aims to end repeated visits by citizens to offices and courts over such disputes.
Both sources report the same government announcement with no discernible slant. The Times of India leads with relief for owners and includes more citizen hardship context, while Telangana Today leads with the procedural detail of district committees. Neither source carries opposition critique or independent verification of how many properties will be cleared. The uniform framing suggests this is a government press release reported straight. The concrete next step is the district committees beginning case examination, which will determine the actual pace of relief.
The committee process will determine how quickly registrations move. The speed and number of clearances in the first three months will test whether the fast-track mechanism delivers on the CM's assurance.
