New Delhi, March 7: The Supreme Court Friday issued notice to the BJP and the Congress asking them whether they were willing to explore the chance of forming an alternate government in Delhi.
The apex court bench headed by Justice R.M. Lodha issued notice because it was told that the whole justification for keeping the Delhi assembly underneath suspended animation was with an eye to possible defections within the existing legislative teams of various political parties in the legislature.
The court was told by petitioner Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) that after the assembly has been placed under suspended animation, it’ll stay thus for one year, depriving people of Delhi a popular democratically elected government.
The AAP has challenged the presidential proclamation of keeping the Delhi assembly in suspended animation.
