Telangana High Court on Wednesday imposed costs of ₹10,000 on Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar for failing to file counter affidavits in batch of writ petitions filed in 2016.
A bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice N. Tukaramji directed the CS to deposit the sum with the Prime Minister’s COVID Relief Fund by January 24, 2022. The bench passed the direction after hearing a batch of pleas filed by persons whose lands were acquired by the State government to enhance the storage capacity of Gouravelli Reservoir project from 1.44 tmc ft to 9 tmc ft.

The authorities issued GO nos. 123 and 214 in 2015 to secure lands from the farmers of Gudatipally and surrounding villages in Siddipet district for the increasing the reservoir’s capacity.
