Telangana: HYDRAA Commissioner AV Ranganath Moves High Court Against Removal Order
Hyderabad: HYDRAA Commissioner A.V. Ranganath has approached the Telangana High Court, challenging an earlier order concerning his removal from the post.
The development comes after a single judge of the Telangana High Court directed the state government to remove Ranganath as HYDRAA Commissioner. The court also asked the government to appoint another officer in his place.
Ranganath has now filed a petition challenging the single-judge order. His move is expected to put the issue before a higher judicial forum for further consideration.
The earlier proceedings were linked to allegations of repeated violations of court orders involving HYDRAA. The court noted that 63 contempt cases were pending against Ranganath.
The court had expressed concern over what it described as repeated non-compliance with judicial directions. It subsequently directed the Telangana Chief Secretary to relieve Ranganath from the HYDRAA post.
HYDRAA, or the Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency, has been at the centre of several enforcement drives in Hyderabad. The agency deals with issues involving public assets, encroachments, disaster response and related civic matters.
Ranganath’s latest petition has added a new legal turn to the controversy. The High Court’s decision on his challenge could determine whether he continues as HYDRAA Commissioner.
Why It Matters
The case is significant for Hyderabad’s ongoing efforts to protect lakes, government land and other public assets. HYDRAA has played a prominent role in enforcement activities across the city.
The latest legal challenge is also being closely watched because it concerns the powers and accountability of government officials while implementing civic enforcement measures.
