Union Minister of Law and Justice Kiren Rijiju has said that “there is no complete proposal from the State government on shifting the principal seat of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh.”

Replying to a question by TDP Rajya Sabha member Kanakamedala Ravindra Kumar on Thursday, the Union Minister said, “The shifting of the principal seat of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh is decided by the State government in consultation with the concerned High Court. The State government is responsible for meeting the expenditure for running the High Court.”

“Similarly, the Chief Justice of the concerned High Court is responsible for running the day-to-day administration of the court,” he said.
