Telangana HC Warns Collector in Naxalite Widow Land Case
A long time ago, a Naxal commander was promised land when he gave up his fight.
Sadly, he was later killed.
His wife was never given the land.
Now, the High Court is upset that the government hasn't kept its promise and is making the district official explain why.
The widow is still waiting for the land, hoping to get what was promised.
Telangana High Court addressed land allotment for the widow of a slain Naxal commander.
The commander was promised land after surrendering in 1989.
His widow, Nagavelli Aruna, filed a petition in 2015.
The court is concerned about delays in the case.
The Siddipet district collector has been warned to file a counter-affidavit.
