In August, the court issued a bailable warrant for Finance Department Secretary Sandeep Sultania following a contempt petition. The petition alleged that the state government failed to release Rs 33.42 crore to the Secunderabad Cantonment Board as ordered in 2024. Justice Nagesh Bheemapaka ordered the Hyderabad Police Commissioner to produce Sultania before the court. In September, the court issued a contempt notice to Education Secretary Yogita Rana. This action followed a Public Interest Litigation regarding the Hyderabad Public School (HPS) Society, which raised concerns over fund management, unauthorized constructions, and land status. The notice was issued after the court determined that the Secretary had not taken the required action within the previously mandated timeframe. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-03: Telangana High Court issues contempt notice to Education Secretary The Telangana High Court issued a contempt notice to Education Secretary Yogita Rana for failing to act on orders regarding alleged financial and land irregularities within the Hyderabad Public School Society. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/telangana-high-court-issues-contempt-notice-to-education-secretary ### 2026-08-07: Telangana High Court issues warrant for Finance Secretary Sandeep Sultania Telangana High Court issued a bailable warrant for Finance Secretary Sandeep Sultania over contempt for not releasing Rs 33.42 crore to Secunderabad Cantonment Board, ordering his arrest and bail conditions. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/telangana-high-court-issues-warrant-for-finance-secretary-sandeep-sultania --- Cite as: Telangana High Court contempt proceedings against officials.
