A complaint was filed by BJP MP Sukanta Majumdar alleging 'misconduct, brutality and life-threatening injuries'.
New Delhi, February 19
The Supreme Court on Monday stayed the Lok Sabha Privileges Committee's order summoning West Bengal Chief Secretary and several other officers on February 19 following a complaint filed by BJP MP Sukanta Majumdar alleging “misconduct, brutality and life-threatening injuries".
A Bench led by CJI DY Chandrachud stayed the proceedings before the Privileges Committee after senior advocates Kapil Sibal and AM Singhvi mentioned it for urgent hearing.
Majumder was injured during a protest against alleged systematic exploitation and sexual assault against women in Sandeshkhali by TMC strongman Shahjahan Sheikh and others.
