Telangana HC settles 40-year-old land dispute in Jangaon

The Telangana High Court has settled a 40-year-long dispute regarding more than 40 acres of land in Jangaon district. It also rebuked a state-appointed officer for inaction which kept the two generations locked in litigation.

On November 12, a bench comprising Justices Moushumi Bhattacharya and Gadi Praveen Kumar dismissed a writ appeal filed by the officer



calling it, “meritless, completely misconceived and tainted with mala fides in misleading the court.”

The bench further said that the injury caused to the petitioner due to appellant’s inaction can’t be measured in monetary terms. According to reports, the current value of the disputed land is Rs 50 crore. It spans across Raghnathpalli, Jangaon and Palakurthy.
