Allowing an appeal challenging a single judge order in favour of a deceased person, the Telangana High Court imposed costs of ₹25,000 on School Education department for moving the appeal petition with a delay of 250 days.
A bench of the Acting Chief Justice P. Sam Koshy and Justice Narsing Rao Nandikonda, stating that it was ‘reluctantly’ allowing the appeal, ordered that the costs be deposited with the State Legal Services Authority within two weeks. The bench instructed the Principal Secretary for Education to ascertain which officer of the department was responsible for the delay in filing the appeal, which resulted in imposing costs.
