Writ petition adjourned

Hyderabad: The writ petition filed in A.P High Court complaining about the caste status of Harsh Kumar, Amalapuram MP, has been adjourned to Thursday. The writ filed by Sri Nagesh had come up for consideration before Justice Seshasayana Reddy. The petitioner contended that Harsh Kumar is a Christian by practice and belief and he cannot enjoy the status of SC and derive benefits. Such benefits were available only for SCs who are still in Hindu religious fold. The judge asked the counsel for the petitioner to furnish an earlier judgment copy. –Legal Correspondent
