Hyderabad, June 11: Telangana Urdu Academy Director Mohammad Asadullah resumed his official duties following specific oral instructions from state authorities.
The development comes after his recent removal from the post during a one-day administrative promotion exercise.
Minority Welfare Department officials had initially replaced Asadullah, sparking questions regarding the targeted nature of the personnel shift.
Asadullah returned to the Urdu Academy office to oversee administrative functions and ongoing projects.
His removal last week coincided with a series of rapid promotions and transfers within the state minority welfare department.
The specific reasons for his initial exit were not detailed in the official government order. This lack of transparency led to speculation about administrative bias against the long-serving official.

Sources indicate that the one-day promotion drive aimed to streamline department leadership.
However, the subsequent reversal and Asadullah’s reinstatement via oral commands suggest a shift in the executive stance.
The Urdu Academy functions as a statutory body to promote the Urdu language and provide scholarships to students. Consistent leadership is vital for the timely disbursement of these financial grants across Telangana.
The Minority Welfare Department oversees the appointment of the Director and Secretary of the Academy. Administrative experts note that oral instructions are often used to ensure continuity before formal written orders are issued.
Asadullah has previously managed several key initiatives, including the publication of Urdu literature and the maintenance of Urdu libraries. The government has not yet issued a formal statement regarding the long-term status of this position.
