Telangana High Court Issues Warrants Over Land Case
An elderly man named Velupula Yellaiah had his land taken by the government a while back, but he didn't get enough money for it.
He went to court, and the court agreed he should get more money.
The court told the district collector in charge to pay Yellaiah over 7 lakh rupees, but they didn't.
Because they didn't follow the court's orders, the court issued warrants, meaning the collector now has to appear in court to explain why.
Telangana High Court issued warrants against Rajanna Sircilla district collector.
The case involves a land acquisition dispute from 2009.
Petitioner Velupula Yellaiah was not properly compensated for his land.
The court ordered the collector to pay ₹7.07 lakh.
The collector failed to comply with the court order.
