Rajasthan: Speaker to move SC against HC order to defer action against rebels

Rajasthan Speaker CP Joshi has said he will approach the Supreme Court against the High Court’s direction to defer action on disqualification notices against rebel MLAs, including Sachin Pilot.

Addressing a press conference in Jaipur on Wednesday, Speaker CP Joshi said Rajasthan was heading to constitutional crisis and to avert that, he decided move the Supreme Court.

“The Speaker has the complete authority to send a show-cause notice. I have asked my counsel to file a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in Supreme Court,” CP Joshi said.
