The recent aerial survey conducted by Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan has triggered a major political storm, especially after public reactions surfaced regarding the alleged encroachment of vast forest lands. A viral video circulating on social media features a strong public outcry targeting former minister Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy, accusing him of illegally occupying nearly 70,000 acres of forest land.
The reactions reflect deep public frustration over long-standing concerns related to land grabbing, misuse of power and environmental destruction. While official investigation reports are still awaited, the issue has rapidly turned into a state-wide discussion.
Allegations of Large-Scale Forest Land Encroachment
In the viral interview, the speaker alleges that former minister Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy stands at the center of massive land-grabbing operations. According to the claims, Peddireddy allegedly took control of forest land, constructed roads, built guest houses and used the protected zone for personal benefit.
The number 70,000 acres has shaken public sentiment, with many questioning how such large portions of ecologically sensitive forest land could be exploited over the years without strict intervention.
Pawan Kalyan’s Aerial Survey Brings Issue to Spotlight
The interviewee praises Pawan Kalyan for conducting a personal aerial survey, calling it a bold step that exposed issues usually hidden from public eye. The speaker says the survey has “shown the true form” of long-rumored illegal encroachments and brought renewed attention to environmental accountability.
Public opinion suggests that such investigations should continue aggressively, especially in regions where forest land boundaries have allegedly been altered over time to accommodate political or business interests.
Environmental Concerns: Public Warns of Irreversible Damage
Beyond political allegations, many people are expressing concern over the long-term environmental impact. Forests are vital ecosystems that support wildlife, regulate oxygen levels, and protect future generations. The speaker in the video highlights that destroying forest land is not only illegal but also dangerous to the environment and society.
“If forests disappear, our future disappears,” he says, urging strict legal action against anyone found guilty of converting forest resources for private gain.
Public Demand Stern Action Against Encroachers
Public sentiment in the video is clear—encroachment of forest land should not be taken lightly. The speaker insists that anyone involved in illegal occupation must face strict punishment to prevent future exploitation. He warns that if offenders are not held accountable, younger generations may wrongly assume that land grabbing is a path to power or success.
The speaker also emphasizes that politicians engaging in such acts should be jailed and made an example out of, ensuring that state resources are protected rather than manipulated.
What Happens Next?
The government has already initiated inquiries into several forest land-related allegations. With public reactions gaining momentum, pressure is increasing for transparent disclosure of land records, boundary changes, and historical land use patterns.
Political observers note that Pawan Kalyan’s aerial survey could pave the way for a broader audit of forest encroachments across Andhra Pradesh.
