High Court Division Bench Stays Order Removing HYDRA Commissioner
A court had earlier ordered AV Ranganath to leave his job as HYDRA Commissioner.
That order came from a Single Bench of the Telangana High Court.
The judge was hearing complaints about HYDRA demolishing alleged illegal buildings.
These buildings were said to be on lakes, government land, and buffer zones in Hyderabad.
The judge said there had been repeated violations of regulations.
Ranganath appealed the decision.
A larger Division Bench then temporarily stopped the removal order.
This means he has received relief while the appeal is considered.
A Telangana High Court Division Bench stayed the Single Bench order directing AV Ranganath’s immediate removal as HYDRA Commissioner.
The Single Bench had ordered Ranganath’s removal while hearing petitions concerning HYDRA’s actions against alleged illegal constructions.
The petitions involved demolitions on lakes, government land, and buffer zones within Hyderabad city limits.
The Single Judge cited repeated violations of regulations when directing Ranganath to be relieved of his duties.
The Division Bench issued an interim order suspending the removal directive after an appeal was filed.
