The petition sought directives for the Delhi government and Chief Minister to forward 14 pending CAG reports to the Assembly Speaker and to convene a special session for their discussion. In the pre-lunch session, the court emphasised the necessity of placing the reports before the Assembly without delay. Justice Datta also questioned whether a mandamus could be issued to the Speaker to summon a session, especially with elections on the horizon.
