Property owner locks tahsildar office over unpaid rent in Telangana's Suryapet district
SURYAPET: A property owner locked the Palakeedu tahsildar’s office on Thursday morning, protesting non-payment of around Rs 3.70 lakh in rent dues pending for nearly two years.
S Janardhan Reddy said he had repeatedly approached the district collector and RDO seeking release of the dues, but received no response. Frustrated, he said he was left with no option but to lock the office.
The move left farmers and other visitors stranded outside from 10.30 am to 2.30 pm.
