In Telangana & Andhra too, HCs strike a blow for citizens, writes VJM Divakar
âThe entire world...knows of the war-like conditions...since February 2021. Does the SEC not belong to this planet? Are you living on Mars? You gave the notification on April 16. Some of the municipalitiesâ terms have not been completed by March and mid-April. You have four months' time to conduct elections. Is there such an urgency...? -- Chief Justice Hima Kohli, Telangana HC
Chief Justice Hima Kohli, Telangana High Court
In the absence of any proactive measures from the elected government amidst the dangerous surge of Covid pandemic, the judiciary seems to be stepping in, to rescue helpless citizens in the country and both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh states are no exception to this.
