New Delhi, December 13
Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud on Wednesday assured expelled TMC MP Mahua Moitra’s counsel that he would take a call on her request for urgent listing of her petition challenging her expulsion from the Lok Sabha following her indictment on allegations of cash-for-query.
“This is a member being expelled from the Lok Sabha,” senior counsel Abhishek Manu Singhvi told a Bench led by CJI on behalf of the TMC MP. “The matter may not have been registered… If an email was sent, then I would look at it right away. Please send it,” the CJI told Singhvi.
Earlier in the day, Singhvi mentioned her petition before another Bench led by senior-most judge Justice SK Kaul as the CJI was heading a Constitution Bench.
