Telangana High Court on Thursday issued notices to State government in a PIL petition seeking cancellation of allotment of 6,5357 square yards of land at L.B. Nagar in Hyderabad to Deccan Chronicle Holdings Private (DCHPL) Limited and recovery of the same from the latter.
A bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice N. Tukaramji, after hearing the petition filed by BJP leader and social worker Perala Shekhar Rao, instructed the government to respond to the notices. According to the petitioner, the then State government of undivided Andhra Pradesh in 2009 allotted the land to DCHPL at the rate of ₹7,000 per square yard.
The land was supposed to be used for the purpose of publication of newspaper. Mr. Shekhar Rao contended that, however, the DCHPL did not use it for the said purpose. It entered into an agreement with TNR Constructions, a real estate company, to develop the allotted land for commercial purpose, the petitioner maintained.

Under the NBS, newborns are screened for communication disorders before they are discharged from the hospital. For this, AIISH has collaborated with several hospitals to conduct screening which is performed to detect hearing impairment and other developmental disabilities that can affect speech and language development. The screening has been helping in early intervention for those identified with the disorders, as any delay in the identification poses risk and affects successful management of children with hearing loss, according to AIISH.
