    Summary of WP/18597/2026 The Telangana High Court disposed of Mrs. Vuppala Shobha Rani's petition challenging the Regional Passport Officer's rejection of her passport renewal application solely on grounds of a pending dowry case (IPC 498-A). Rather than directly granting the renewal, the court directed the petitioner to approach the trial court handling the criminal case to seek a No Objection Certificate (NOC) for passport renewal, which the trial court must dispose of within two weeks after hearing the complainant. The court did not decide the substantive merits regarding whether pending criminal proceedings alone justify passport denial. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
