The Andhra Pradesh High Court, with Chief Justice Gill presiding, took note of a legal challenge concerning the allotment of land for a proposed data centre, raising both lease‑related and environmental issues.
The court highlighted contradictory statements: one side asserted that the contested parcel had been leased for a 30‑year period, while the opposing view maintained that the original lease was limited to 11 years. These divergent claims prompted the bench to demand a detailed examination.
The matter touches on the state’s broader push to develop digital infrastructure, implicating local stakeholders and environmental considerations. By ordering a thorough review, the court signaled that the resolution could affect land‑use policy and community interests in Andhra Pradesh.
