The Hyderabad High Court on Monday
direc-ted Telangana advocate-general to justify the stand of the
government in conferring Cabinet ranks to its advisers and special
representatives.
While hearing a plea by Congress MP Gutha Sukhender Reddy challenging the action of the government in according Cabinet ranks to advisors, a division bench comprising acting Chief Justice Dilip B. Bhosale and Justice S.V. Bhatt observed that it has no objection if the state grants facilities to its advisors on par with Cabinet ministers but it shall not exceed the ratio prescribed for conferring the Cabinet rank as per the law.
Mr K. Ramakrishna Reddy, advocate-general, submitted that they have appointed 14 persons as advisers and gave them the Cabinet rank only for giving perks to them.
Mr Reddy said he will file counter-affidavit on the government’s stand on the issue, when the bench reminded him about the Constitutio-nal provisions and the Supreme Court ruling on the composition of Cabinet.
