On Wednesday, Supreme Court alleged Telangana CM Revanth Reddy for his alleged announcement in the State legislature that there could be no bye-elections in the State. The Bench of Justice BR Gavai and Justice Augustine George Masih said, the Court was listening to a case that has its foundation in petitions to disqualify Telangana Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) Venkata Rao Tellam, Kadiyam Srihari and Danam Nagender, who defected to the Congress after being elected on a BRS price ticket.
Supreme Court alleged Telangana CM
In November 2024, a Division Bench of the Telangana High Court directed the Speaker of the Telangana Legislative Assembly. It is to determine on these disqualification petitions in a “reasonable time.” It was challenged before the Supreme Court by BRS MLAs – Kuna Pandu Vivekananda and Padi Kaushik Reddy – and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Alleti Maheshwar Reddy. The petitioners have protested the Speaker’s failure to decide on the problem in a time-specific way. Appearing for the petitioner-aspect, Senior Advocate C Aryaman Sundaram, today apprised the Supreme Court around CM Reddy’s declaration.
CM Step ahead
What after Supreme Court alleged Telangana CM ? “The Chief Minister on 26th March in the Assembly advised the members. Said, ‘I guarantee you via the Speaker that there are not elections whether or not you turn sides’. It’s an Assembly proceeding,” Sundaram said.
Senior Advocate Mukul Rohtagi seemed for the reliable respondents and countered that the Assembly complaints were not in query in the case. He clarified that he was not representing the CM in this example.
