# Telangana HC pulls up officials for bypassing due process in land disputes 2026-08-06T19:52:05+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Telangana High Court on Thursday pulled up revenue authorities for allegedly failing to issue notices before demolishing structures in land dispute cases. Justice NV Shravan Kumar questioned whether officials were deliberately bypassing due process to prevent affected parties from approaching courts. The court made clear that while protecting government land is important, such actions must strictly conform to the law. The observations came during a hearing on a petition challenging the demolition of a compound wall and security room at a residential property in Kondapur by the Hyderabad Disaster Response and Assets Monitoring and Protection Agency. Justice Kumar directed the Serilingampally tahsildar to appear before the court on August 11 with all records relating to the case. The court also sought details on whether a survey had been conducted before determining that the property stood on government land. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - newindianexpress.com Tags: demolition, due process, HYDRAA, land disputes, Telangana High Court Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/telangana-hc-questions-notices-before-hyderabad-land-demolition/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
