**A CONSTITUTIONAL AND OFFICIAL REPRESENTATION<\/span><\/h1>

SEEKING URGENT EXECUTIVE INTERVENTION<\/span>
IN LARGE-SCALE ECONOMIC OFFENCES<\/span>
AND PROTECTION OF VICTIMS\u2019 FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS**<\/span><\/p>

To<\/strong><\/span>
The Chief Secretary to Government, and\u00a0
<\/span>CC : The Director General of Police,\u00a0<\/strong>

Government of Telangana<\/span><\/strong>
Hyderabad<\/strong>

6Th February, 2026<\/span><\/span><\/h4>

Subject:<\/strong> Urgent Representation Seeking Immediate, Uniform and Time-Bound Inter-Agency Action in Economic Offences, to Prevent Dissipation of Proceeds of Crime and Continuing Violation of Victims\u2019 Fundamental Rights \u2013 Reg.<\/span><\/p>

I. INTRODUCTORY SUBMISSION & CONSTITUTIONAL CONTEXT<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
  1. I, Kalle Nagaraja Giri Prasad<\/strong>, S\/o Late Kalle Nagaraju, aged about 54 years, Convenor, Victims Rights Protection Trust<\/strong>, Hyderabad, respectfully submit this representation in discharge of a constitutional duty owed to thousands of victims of economic offences across the State of Telangana.<\/span><\/li>
  2. This is not a routine grievance or individual complaint. It is a constitutional appeal<\/strong>, invoking the executive responsibility of the State under Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution of India<\/strong>, and seeking urgent corrective action to arrest a systemic breakdown in investigation, recovery and victim protection in large-scale economic and financial crimes.<\/span><\/li>
  3. This representation is being submitted prior to invoking the extraordinary jurisdiction of the Hon\u2019ble High Court of Telangana under Article 226<\/strong>, so as to afford the State an opportunity to act institutionally and decisively before judicial intervention becomes inevitable.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

    II. LOCUS STANDI & PUBLIC INTEREST FOUNDATION<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
    1. The Victims Rights Protection Trust is a public-interest organisation consistently engaged with victims of deposit scams, Ponzi schemes, unregistered chit funds, real-estate frauds and other white-collar crimes.<\/span><\/li>
    2. Thousands of affected victims, many of whom have lost life savings, retirement benefits, provident funds and borrowed monies, have approached the Trust after exhausting all ordinary remedies.<\/span><\/li>
    3. The present representation is therefore rooted in collective public injury<\/strong>, not private interest, and squarely falls within matters demanding immediate executive and constitutional attention.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

      III. ALARMING SURGE OF ECONOMIC OFFENCES IN TELANGANA<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
      1. Telangana has witnessed an unprecedented rise in organised economic offences, including illegal deposit collection schemes, fraudulent investment models, real-estate cheating, cyber-enabled financial frauds and laundering of proceeds of crime.<\/span><\/li>
      2. These offences are not isolated acts but are systematically planned<\/strong>, involving layered transactions, benami structures, family members, close associates and sophisticated diversion of funds.<\/span><\/li>
      3. The financial magnitude involved runs into thousands of crores of rupees<\/strong>, affecting not only individual victims but the financial stability and public confidence in governance itself.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

        IV. CRITICAL FAILURE AT THE THRESHOLD STAGE<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
        1. Although FIRs are registered by specialised agencies such as CCS, EOW, CID and local police, the most critical phase of investigation\u2014the initial 24 to 48 hours<\/strong>\u2014is routinely lost.<\/span><\/li>
        2. During this window, when unaccounted cash, documents, digital devices, property records and electronic trails are physically available, no mandatory, uniform or coordinated action is undertaken<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li>
        3. As a result, by the time searches or seizures occur, assets are transferred, evidence destroyed, funds layered or laundered, and recovery becomes practically impossible.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

          V. GROUND REALITY OF BLACK MONEY CONCEALMENT<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
          1. It is an undeniable ground reality that vast quantities of black money and proceeds of economic crimes are concealed in residences, benami properties and controlled premises of offenders and their family members<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li>
          2. Delay at the inception stage irreversibly defeats recovery. Once assets are alienated or layered, restitution becomes illusory, regardless of subsequent prosecution.<\/span><\/li>
          3. This reality necessitates immediate, decisive and compulsory action at the very threshold of complaint or FIR<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

            VI. MISUSE OF BAIL & CONTINUING VICTIMISATION<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
            1. Accused persons in economic offences routinely secure bail at early stages and thereafter:<\/span><\/li>
            2. Intimidate and threaten victims and witnesses;<\/span>
              b. Coerce complainants into illegal settlements;<\/span>
              c. Tamper with digital and documentary evidence;<\/span>
              d. Transfer proceeds of crime to family members and benami entities; and<\/span>
              e. In several cases, restart similar fraudulent activities.<\/span><\/li>
            3. Such conduct transforms bail into an instrument of continued criminality, resulting in ongoing violation of victims\u2019 right to life with dignity under Article 21<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

              VII. INTER-AGENCY FRAGMENTATION & JURISDICTIONAL GAPS<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
              1. There exists no mandatory, institutionalised coordination at the FIR stage among CCS, EOW, CID, ACB, Enforcement Directorate and other specialised agencies.<\/span><\/li>
              2. This fragmentation allows offenders to exploit jurisdictional boundaries, procedural delays and administrative silos, defeating both prosecution and recovery.<\/span><\/li>
              3. In economic offences, delay and lack of coordination are themselves fatal to justice<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                VIII. INADEQUATE IMPLEMENTATION OF EXISTING STATUTES<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                1. Despite the presence of statutory frameworks under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the Telangana Protection of Depositors in Financial Establishments Act, the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002, and allied laws, enforcement remains sporadic and delayed.<\/span><\/li>
                2. In the absence of court-monitored, time-bound and coordinated execution, these statutes remain largely ineffective in securing victim restitution.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                  IX. NATIONAL JUDICIAL DEVELOPMENTS \u2013 SUPREME COURT CONTEXT<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                  1. A significant writ petition titled Sureshkumar & Ors. vs. Union of India & Ors.<\/strong>, concerning an alleged \u20b91,000 crore deposit scam, is presently under consideration before the Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court of India.<\/span><\/li>
                  2. A Bench comprising the Hon\u2019ble Chief Justice of India, Justice Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi issued notice on 6 February 2025 and is examining whether large, inter-State economic offences can be effectively investigated by State police alone.<\/span><\/li>
                  3. The proceedings expose systemic investigative failures, prolonged delays, non-recovery of assets and committee-level paralysis, despite judicial supervision.<\/span><\/li>
                  4. The anomaly of parallel and fragmented investigations across States<\/strong> has been judicially noticed, directly reinforcing the concerns raised in this representation.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                    X. CONSTITUTIONAL NECESSITY FOR IMMEDIATE EXECUTIVE ACTION<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                    1. The above developments demonstrate that delay at the threshold stage irreversibly defeats justice<\/strong>, compels courts to intervene belatedly, and leaves victims remediless.<\/span><\/li>
                    2. Uniform, immediate and mandatory executive action is therefore the only effective constitutional response<\/strong> to large-scale economic offences.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                      XI. CORE EXECUTIVE ACTION SOUGHT (WITHOUT JUDICIAL USURPATION)<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                      1. In the above circumstances, it is respectfully requested that the State of Telangana institutionalise a uniform State-wide protocol<\/strong>, mandating that within 24 hours of receipt of complaint or registration of FIR in every economic offence<\/strong>, the following actions are initiated:<\/span><\/li>
                      2. Immediate search and seizure operations against accused persons, their family members, close associates and suspected benami holders;<\/span>
                        b. Seizure, freezing and attachment of unaccounted cash, movable and immovable properties, bank accounts, digital wallets, crypto assets, documents and electronic devices;<\/span>
                        c. Securing of evidence at the threshold stage to prevent dissipation of proceeds of crime; and<\/span>
                        d. Protection of victims and witnesses from intimidation or coercion.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                        XII. NEED FOR A HIGH-LEVEL EXPERT MECHANISM<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                        1. It is further requested that the State consider constituting a High-Level Expert Committee<\/strong> comprising senior police officers experienced in economic offences, representatives of specialised agencies, and financial investigation experts, to:<\/span><\/li>
                        2. Frame constitutionally compliant SOPs for economic offences;<\/span>
                          b. Ensure coordinated inter-agency action;<\/span>
                          c. Recommend mechanisms for victim protection and restitution; and<\/span>
                          d. Submit a time-bound report for further action.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                          XIII. PETITIONER\u2019S OFFER OF ASSISTANCE<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                          1. In my capacity as Convenor of Victims Rights Protection Trust, I respectfully offer to place victim data, field-level information and recurring fraud patterns before the authorities, if so permitted, in the larger public interest.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                            XIV. BONA FIDES & URGENCY<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                            1. This representation is made bona fide, without personal, political or monetary motive, and solely to prevent continuing constitutional violations affecting thousands of citizens.<\/span><\/li>
                            2. The matter involves public money, systemic failure and ongoing erosion of trust in governance, warranting immediate executive consideration<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                              XV. FINAL REQUEST & NOTICE<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                              1. I respectfully request a reasoned written response at the earliest<\/strong>, indicating:<\/span><\/li>
                              2. Whether the State of Telangana proposes to adopt mandatory, time-bound inter-agency action in economic offences; and<\/span>
                                b. Whether a uniform institutional protocol will be implemented to prevent recurrence of these failures.<\/span><\/li>
                              3. In the absence of a timely response, I shall be constrained, in discharge of constitutional responsibility, to place these facts before the Hon\u2019ble High Court of Telangana<\/strong> by filing a writ petition under Article 226, seeking binding judicial directions.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                                XVI. CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>
                                1. This representation is submitted with the earnest hope that the executive will act decisively, thereby protecting victims, preserving public faith, and obviating the necessity for immediate judicial intervention.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

                                  Yours faithfully,<\/strong><\/span><\/p>
