Why did the Andhra Pradesh High Court refuse to halt the ticket price hike for 'Pushpa-2'?

Answer By law4u team

  1. Petitioner's Arguments:
    • A PIL filed by S. Venkateswarlu claimed that the government violated GO 13 by allowing six daily shows instead of the permissible five.
    • The petitioner argued that ticket price hikes for 12 days exceeded the 10-day limit set by the court.
    • Concerns were raised about premier shows charging excessively high prices.
  2. Court's Observations:
    • The court stated that price increases within prescribed norms are acceptable.
    • It remarked that individuals unable to afford premier shows should avoid attending them.
    • The bench emphasized prioritizing larger public interest issues over such matters.
  3. Direction to Government:
    • The government was advised to adhere to the court's previous orders, limiting price hikes to 10 days and shows to regulatory limits.
  4. Outcome:
    • The court refused to grant immediate relief but promised detailed orders later.

This decision highlights the court's focus on balancing regulatory compliance with practical concerns about public interests.
