HC agrees to prepone hearing on BJP MLA's plea seeking CAG reports in assembly
Deccan ChronicleNew Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday preponed the hearing on a plea filed by several BJP MLAs seeking a direction to place 12 CAG reports related to liquor duty, pollution, and finance before the assembly. The application was filed in a pending petition by Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta and Delhi BJP MLAs Mohan Singh Bisht, Om Prakash Sharma, Ajay Kumar Mahawar, Abhay Verma, Anil Kumar Bajpai and Jitendra Mahajan. Advocate Anil Soni, appearing for the petitioners, submitted that there was urgency in the matter as the Winter Session of the Delhi Legislative Assembly has commenced today and will continue till December 3. "Despite the LG's repeated requests and constitutional obligation, these reports were not sent to the LG and consequently, could not be tabled in the Delhi legislative assembly," it said.
