Court orders status quo, schedules hearing for Tuesday
The Supreme Court on Friday pressed the pause button in the legal battle for power in Karnataka, asking Assembly Speaker K.R. Ramesh Kumar to refrain from deciding on the disqualification or resignation of 10 rebel Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) MLAs for the time being.
The order comes just a day after the court asked Mr. Ramesh Kumar to meet the 10 MLAs at 6 p.m. on July 11 and decide on their resignations “forthwith or in the course of the remaining part of the day”.
On Friday, a Bench, led by Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi, ordered status quo and scheduled the hearing for Tuesday next.
The Bench’s decision came after an hour-long hearing, in which Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy said the rebel MLAs had dragged the court into a “political thicket”.
The Speaker, in turn, accused the legislators of feeding the court with a petition “full of blunders and distortions”.
