Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has registered a disproportionate assets case against a Deputy Executive Engineer at Irrigation and CAD Department in Nagarkurnool district, after searches at his residence and nine other locations linked to his relatives, friends and associates uncovered properties and assets with a documented value of βΉ7.32 crore.
The officer, Ragiri Satyanarayana, resided at an apartment in Karmanghat. The ACB said he had acquired assets disproportionate to his known sources of income through corrupt practices and dubious means during his service.
The searches conducted on Thursday (November 12, 2026) covered his residence and nine other locations. The assets identified include a 5,200 sq ft triplex villa built on a 342-square-yard plot in Thukkuguda, a 3BHK apartment in a gated community at Karmanghat, a 2BHK flat at Rock Town in Nagole, 25 acres of agricultural land in Shapoor village of Wanaparthy district, nine open plots in Nagarkurnool and a farmhouse in Shapoor village.
The ACB also found around 50 tolas of gold ornaments, 2.8 kg of silver articles and five vehicles, including a Mahindra XUV 7XO, Mahindra TUV 300, Maruti Celerio, Hyundai Santro and a Bolero.
The documented value of the movable and immovable assets was estimated at βΉ7,32,66,581. The ACB said the market value of the properties could be several times higher than their documented value.
Further verification of additional assets is underway. The case was registered under relevant provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act, and the investigation is continuing.
