The PIL bench of the High Court at Hyderabad comprising Acting Chief Justice Dilip B Bhosale and Justice S Ravi Kumar on Monday directed Manager National Highway Authority of India to visit Peddakunta Thanda in Mahbubnagar along with petitioner’s counsel and the local police officer and measure the distance between the underpass and the Thanda which is connecting the of National Highway No 44.
The bench was dealing with a public interest writ petition filed by Asim Avatar Das and two others. They sought protection to tribal women folk left in the Thanda after killing of as many 80 men belonging to the Thanda in road accidents while attempting to cross the highway and to direct the authorities to construct a subway near the village.
Ms Sailaja, manager of NHAI informed the court that there was an underpass available for the residents of the Thanda to cross the highway and as per the details available with them only 19 men of Thanda had lost their lives in road accidents. While pointing out that how the court can grant an order for protection in a PIL, the bench directed the petitioners counsel along with the NHAI official and local police officer and file a comprehensive report on prevailing situation in the village within three weeks.
