A Division Bench of the Hyderabad High Court, comprising Acting Chief Justice Dilip B. Bhosale and Justice P. V. Sanjay Kumar, on Thursday declared that the arguments in review petitions in the case pertaining to bifurcation of the Hyderabad High Court were completed and the judgment was reserved.
The Bench was dealing with the cases arising out of PIL filed by Dhanpal Rao on formation of a separate High Court for Andhra Pradesh.
It may be recalled that the PIL was disposed of by a Division Bench headed by the then Chief Justice in May 2015.
The Bench declared that the High Court for the state of Andhra Pradesh should be situated within the geographical boundaries of AP state only.
The contention that it could be located at Hyderabad for some time at least was rejected. The Telangana state and several interveners from Telangana field petitions seeking review of the judgment.
The bench heard the arguments the whole day.
