HC adjourns Ponnala's case hearing to Feb 21 - Sakshi Post


The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Friday adjourned till February 21, the hearing on the petition involving Information Technology minister, Ponnala Lakshmaiah in Jangaon constituency election controversy.

Ponnala appeared before the magistrate on Friday. The arguments on the case continued for two hours today.

It may be recalled here that the IT minister had won the assembly elections from Jangaon in Warangal with a wafer-thin margin of 236 votes against Kommuri Pratap Reddy.

Pratap Reddy filed a petition in the court stating that Ponnala's victory doesn't stand!

The Supreme Court recently rejected  Ponnala Lakshmaiah's election petition challenging the High Court's verdict which directed the authorities to recount the 2009 election results.
The court also imposed a fine of Rs 10,000 on Ponnala for wasting the court's time.
