By S A Ishaqui
Hyderabad,Aug. 3: The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Monday directed the Central government to inform its stand on the issue of alleged fake gallantry awards given to four police officials in the state without their participation in an encounter in Karimnagar district in which three top naxal leaders were killed. The court also directed the Chief Secretary to file his counter within a week.
A division bench comprising Justice Goda Raghuram and Justice Ramesh Ranganathan, was dealing with a petition filed challenging the presentation of the prestigious awards to ineligible officials while ignoring the real ones who participated in the encounter.
The bench sought to know whether the Centre had any policy of its own other than accepting the recommendations of a state government.
The bench told Mr A. Rajasekhar Reddy, the assistant-solicitor general, that they would examine the issue on whether the Centre was performing its federal duty as envisaged in the Constitution.
Mr Reddy told the court that since the awards were withdrawn, they closed the matter at their end. The bench granted three weeks to the Centre to file its counter.
