PANAJI: The High Court of Bombay at Goa has adjourned the Congress MLA disqualification matter for next Wednesday.
The hearing was adjourned as the counsel for the petitioner Girish Chodankar’s Advocate Kapil Sibal was unavailable today. The hearing was to be held through video conferencing.
High Court Chief Justice Dipankar Datta had already constituted a two-member Bench comprising Justice K K Tated and Justice Prithiviraj Chavan to hear the appeal.
On April 20, Goa Assembly Speaker Rajesh Patnekar had dismissed two disqualification petitions filed by Congress president Girish Chodankar and MGP MLA Sudin Dhavalikar against their party MLAs for switching sides and joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in 2019.
