According to officials, the raids were conducted at the officer’s residence, office premises, and other locations associated with relatives.
During the searches, investigators reportedly seized documents and assets believed to be disproportionate to the official’s known sources of income.
The operation forms part of Telangana’s ongoing anti-corruption drive targeting public servants suspected of accumulating illegal wealth.
Cash, Gold and Properties Recovered
The Anti-Corruption Bureau reportedly identified assets valued at over ₹13 crore, including:
- ₹1.54 crore in cash
- Gold jewellery
- Bank deposits
- Residential flats
- Open plots and land parcels
- Property-related documents
Officials also reported the existence of bank lockers in the name of the officer’s wife, which are expected to be examined as part of the investigation.
Market Value May Be Higher
Investigators believe the actual market value of some properties could be significantly higher than the preliminary valuation recorded during the raids.
Verification of property ownership, financial records, investments, and bank transactions is currently underway.
Authorities are expected to conduct a detailed assessment before finalizing the total value of the assets.
Focus on Revenue and Land Administration
The case has attracted public attention due to the critical role played by the Survey and Land Records Department in managing land-related documentation and administration.
The raids come amid broader scrutiny of land records, property transactions, and allegations of corruption within revenue-related departments.

The Telangana ACB is continuing its investigation to determine whether the assets were acquired through legitimate income sources.
Officials will examine financial records, property documents, and other evidence collected during the searches before deciding on further legal action.
The case has renewed public discussion about transparency, accountability, and anti-corruption measures within government departments.
