The Hyderabad High Court today took up hearing on a Public Interest Litigation filed by former IAS officer turned advocate Shafeequzaman on the issue of permissions for public meetings.
Shafiquzzaman told the HC that the police were denying permissions to public meetings being proposed by different organizations, at the last minute.
He urged the court to issue directions to the police to take decisions on such applications at least a week before the scheduled meetings.
Following this, the HC issued notices to the Principal Secretary of the home department and to the Hyderabad and Cyberabad police commissioners asking them to file counter affidavits within three weeks.
