High Court stays appointments to Telangana child rights panel

The High Court, which had earlier stayed the selection and appointment to the post of chairman of Telangana State Commission for Protection of Child Rights, on Thursday stayed the appointment of members to the commission.Justice Challa Kodanda Ram passed this interim order on a petition filed by Nara Nageswara Rao who sought quashing of the order of the government appointing six members to the commission _ Shobha Rani, Revathi Devi, Ramaleela, Jayasri, Srinivasulu and Archana Rao.

While staying the selection and appointment to the chairman?s post, the court had earlier directed the state government to place all the files pertaining to the proposed appointment of Ravi Kumar as chairman of the commission.On Thursday, the petitioner?s counsel contended that the appointment of six members was made in violation of the prescribed procedure. As per the rules, only those who rendered service for protection of child rights should be considered for appointment as members of the commission. After hearing the case, the judge stayed the appointments and issued notices to the respondents and adjourned the case.
