The Gujarat High Court today rejected an anticipatory bail plea filed by Aam Aadmi Party MLA Chaitra Vasava who has been accused of threatening forest officials by firing in the air while trying to resolve a farming-related matter. Rejecting his bail plea, a bench of Justice JC Doshi observed that the legislator did not have any authority to call two forest department officials to his home and run a "parallel court" to resolve the land encroachment issue. During the hearing of the case, the High Court also remarked that if people had any complaints regarding the actions of forest department officials, they should have approached the court, instead of going to the MLA seeking a solution.
