Latest Answer: The ecotourism project was definitely a major obstacle that Kondapur had to overcome. Not only was the project scrapped, but criminal action was taken against all those developers, IAS officers, IFS officers and even the current state pollution board! Serves them right for trying to make money off the property value at Kondapur. Just the fact that there is a huge forest stretch at Kondapur is a huge boon because Hyderabad has been getting very congested lately and facing many population problems. I read here http://www.commonfloor.com/guide/hyderabad-realty-gachibowli-and-kondapur-ideal-destinations-33327.html that Kondapur is a great place to live in though. It's quite well developed, not as polluted as the other parts of the city and some areas in Kondapur are completely clean and sanitary.
