The Court directed the State Government to file counter within three weeks. It is also made it clear that farmers should not be prevented from entering into their fields.
On Friday, the high Court sought to know the stand of the Andhra Pradesh government on the issue and posted the matter to Monday. More than 30 small and marginal farmers from Tadepalli mandal filed the petition and P. Sudhakar Reddy is arguing on behalf of the petitioners.
