Justice C V Nagarjuna Reddy of the AP high court on Wednesday directed the state government to place before the court the inspection reports of its task force constituted to check the status of infrastructure being maintained by various engineering colleges in the state.
The judge made this interim order while hearing a plea filed by the Rayalaseema engineering and pharmacy private colleges which sought a stay on the state's decision to constitute a task force and get the infrastructure checked in these colleges as set out in its GO Ms No 54 that was issued on August 11. Though the judge refused to stay the operation of this GO as it wants to ensure a better infrastructure for all the colleges, he recorded the apprehensions of the petitioner colleges that feared a backlash by the state on account of their non-compliance with the diktats of the state on the issue of fee structure.
