JUSTICE CV Bhaskar Reddy of the Telangana High Court, while hearing a contempt petition filed by one S Gopal, directed the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) commissioner and other officials to submit a comprehensive report on constructions on certain lands in Hyderabad.
The petition alleged rampant illegal constructions despite a court order mandating the status quo.
The court set a deadline of July 2 for submission of the report and warned that commissioners of both GHMC and the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) would have to appear in person if they failed to comply.
