Today, Hyderabad: Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has ordered the officials to put an iron foot on the encroachments of Hydra… to protect government properties, canals and ponds. Those who act arbitrarily in the matter of government property will have to be punished. He clarified that there should be a HYDRA (Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Monitoring and Protection) system to play that role effectively. He reviewed the formation and procedures of Hydra at the Secretariat on Friday. “Study the organizational structure and procedures in a broad way. The draft should be ready by the assembly sessions which will begin soon. This system should facilitate the expansion of Hyderabad city to provide wide range of services to the people. This new system should be in accordance with the Central National Disaster Management Act. Prepare clear proposals on what level of officers should be there, how many staff are required, from which departments should be taken on deputation etc. HYDRA will have to work in an area of two thousand square kilometers including Greater Hyderabad and Outer Ring Road. Geographical extent should be defined on the lines of existing zones in the city to facilitate division of work. Let us consider allocating special funds to HYDRA if necessary.
The responsibility for removal of unauthorized hoardings is also…
Along with disaster management, Hydra should play a key role in the protection of government properties, curbing encroachment of ponds and canals, removal of encroachments, removal of non-compliant flexi, hoardings, traffic management, drinking water and electricity supply. The responsibility of removal of unauthorized hoardings, flexi and collection of delinquency fee within Greater Hyderabad should be transferred to it. Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, HMDA, Water Board, Vigilance, Traffic, Electricity and Police Departments should have plans to move forward in good coordination with HYDRA. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy made it clear to the officials that the present Enforcement Vigilance and Disaster Management Department should be reorganized accordingly. Government Chief Secretary Shantikumari, Municipal Administration Department Principal Secretary Danakishore, Greater Hyderabad Commissioner Amrapali, Greater Hyderabad EVDM Commissioner Ranganath, CMO Principal Secretary Seshadri and CM Special Secretary Ajith Reddy participated in the meeting.
