High Court stays land acquisition on ORR

Judge refers the matter to Division Bench

The Andhra Pradesh High Court stayed further proceedings pursuant to the land acquisition notifications issued after the change in the alignment of the Outer Ring Road (ORR) project at Kandlakoya village in Medchal mandal for two weeks. The judge G.Raghu Ram stayed the land acquisition proceedings near Uppal for the Musi beautification project.

The judge referred the matter to a Division Bench as the issues including the environment angles needed a serious consideration. The petitioners leveled serious allegations against the Hyderabad Urban Development Authority (HUDA) and its Chairman D.Sudheer Reddy who is made a respondent along with another Congress leader.

The judge disagreeing with the contention that a committee of six IAS officers was asked to look into the complaints, he remarked that the public law did not recognize such committees. He felt that the counter affidavit was not forthcoming about serious issues raised by the petitioners.
