HYDERABAD: Taking a serious view of the state not acting against an agricultural society president despite its own inquiry report pointing to financial fraud by him, the
Telangana high court on Thursday gave the cooperative department one month to act.
Justice T Vinod Kumar gave the direction while hearing a petition accusing M Devender Reddy, president of Konapur Primary Agricultural Cooperative Society (PACS) in Ramayampet mandal in Medak, of misappropriating Rs 2.26 crore form the society’s funds.
Devender Reddy is the husband of TRS MLA Padma Devender Reddy.
The petition was filed by society’s two directors, N Mahipal Reddy and Ch Siddiramulu. Arguing the case of the petitioners, counsel K Pratik Reddy said though the inquiry by the cooperative department established the guilt of the society president, the officials chose to look the other way. “They have not acted on the report,” Reddy said.
The matter has now been posted to February 1.
