As the hearing on the application began, counsel appearing on behalf of the minister sought more time for filing the reply.

The counsel argued that the alleged discrepancies mentioned in the application for lie-detector test by the special investigating team (SIT) required detailed rebuttal. For this purpose, he requested the court to give more time, which was strongly opposed by the opposite counsel.

The counsel for the complainant cited various judgments of the Apex Court and the High Courts which ruled that the cases against MLAs and MPs must be tried expeditiously. After hearing of the arguments TPS Randhawa, Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chandigarh, fixed next date of hearing on application for April 29 and directed the minister to file reply. —TNS
