Hyderabad: A Division Bench of the Telangana High Court comprising Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice J. Sreenivas Rao on Wednesday issued notices to the State government directing it to respond to a public interest litigation (PIL), which challenged the non-implementation of Telangana State Official Languages Act, 1966, in the state`s correspondence and while issuing the government orders.
According to the Act, the Telugu language was adopted as the language to be used for the official purposes of the state and for the transaction of business in the state legislature. Telugu should be used in all the Bills or amendments made in either House of the Legislature of the state and in all the Acts passed by the Legislature.
