High Court issues clarity on order
The Andhra Pradesh High Court has clarified that its orders that the cinema ticket fares be fixed in consultation with the Joint Collector (JC) concerned was applicable across the State.
The High Court clarification comes in the wake of the State government’s contentions that the High Court orders would be applicable only to theatre owners who filed petitions opposing the G.O. 35.
B. Adinarayana Rao, the advocate who represented the theatre managements on Monday, told the court that the Home Secretary asserted that the High Court orders would be applicable only to the petitioners. He also sought clarity from the High Court. In response to it, High Court Chief Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra and Justice M. Satyanarayana Murthy stated that the relaxation in pricing of movie tickets would apply to all exhibitors in the State.
