BJP MLA Plea against Speaker's 'Inaction' over His Complaint against 6 BSP MLAs' Induction to Congress Junked

News 18  

The Rajasthan High Court on Monday dismissed a plea of a BJP MLA questioning the alleged inaction of the state assembly Speaker on his complaint challenging his decision to allow the merger of all six BSP MLAs with the Congress in 2019. A bench of Justice Mahendra Kumar Goyal dismissed the BJP MLA Madan Dilawar's plea as "having become infructuous" after the legislator's counsel Harish Salve told the court that his client was informed by the Speaker's secretariat that an order dismissing his complaint has been passed. Even as the hearing on Dilawar's plea was going on in the court, the MLA staged a 'dharna' in the chamber of Rajasthan assembly secretary, demanding a copy of the order passed by the Speaker on his petition challenging the merger of six BSP MLAs to the Congress. In his writ petition to the high court, Dilawar had said he came to know through information in the public domain that on a similar petition filed by Congress chief whip Mahesh Joshi on July 14 seeking disqualification of his party's 19 rebel MLAs, the Speaker had issued notices to all the MLAs on the same day with three days to reply.
