Telangana High Court Adjourns the Hearing to April 24th
High Court Hearing on HCU Land Dispute Postponed
Division Bench states the matter falls under Supreme Court jurisdiction
High Court directs submission of counter and report by April 24
The Telangana High Court has postponed the hearing in the Hyderabad Central University (HCU) land dispute case to the 24th of this month. The case was taken up by a Division Bench, which opined that the issue may fall under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, suggesting limited scope for intervention by the High Court.
The bench directed all relevant parties to submit a counter affidavit and a detailed report by the next date of hearing. Legal representatives involved in the case have been asked to clearly state the present status of the disputed land and provide clarifications regarding any parallel proceedings pending before the apex court.
The land in question has been under contention, with various stakeholders asserting rights and raising legal objections. The High Court's decision to defer the hearing reflects the complexity of the issue and the possibility of it being influenced by ongoing or prior decisions from the Supreme Court of India.
As the case continues to draw public attention due to its implications on educational and institutional land use, further developments are expected following the next hearing.
