In a major relief for the Aam Aadmi Party, the Delhi High Court today quashed President Ram Nath Kovind’s notification to disqualify the party’s 20 MLAs in the infamous office for profit case.
The Delhi HC said that the MLAs were not given a proper hearing by the Election Commission and referred the case back to EC for reconsideration. The court also restored the MLAs’ membership.
Around a couple of months ago, President Ram Nath Kovind had ordered disqualification of 20 AAP MLAs following the Election Commission’s recommendation, which alleged the MLAs had “flouted the principles of Natural Justice”.
Needless to say, AAP President and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal tweeted that truth has won and that the elected representatives of Delhi were wrongly dismissed in the past. He went on to describe the High Court’s judgement as “a big victory for the people of Delhi”.
