July 17, 2024: The Andhra Pradesh (AP) Cabinet headed by chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu abolished the Andhra Pradesh Land Titling Act, 2022, on July 16 and approved a government order (GO) offering free sand to people for construction.
“The fact that people have many suspicions and fears about the Land Titling Act has been made clear by several newspapers and media houses. Hence, there is massive pressure from landlords to scrap it,” said, information and public relations minister K Parthasarathy, addressing a press conference at the secretariat.
The Cabinet has also scrapped sand policies from 2019 and 2021, and has approved a government order passed on July 8 to offer free sand crucial for construction, to people until a proper mechanism is put in place for that purpose, the minister said.
