The Andhra Pradesh High Court has posted the hearing of a PIL filed by BJP leader N. Ramesh Naidu seeking action against the officials responsible for the breach of the Annamayya Dam in Kadapa district and adequate compensation to the victims, to April 6.
In his petition, Mr. Naidu alleged that inaction of the respondents —Chief Secretary of the Government of Andhra Pradesh, Principal Secretaries (Water Resources, and Revenue), Kadapa Collector and Rajampet RDO—in identifying the officials whose alleged failure had led to the disaster was illegal.
