The Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) conducted simultaneous searches at the residence of Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) Chief Engineer B.Ravinder and 11 other locations on July 14, 2026, as part of a disproportionate assets case.

Acting on specific information, the ACB’s City Range-I team raided 12 locations linked to the officer and his relatives, including his official residence at Sumadhura Acropolis in Nanakramguda.
