NEW DELHI: For the 15th time, two cases of disqualification of a dozen MLAs of Goa that were deferred from November 23 to 26 have been further postponed to December 1 for the Supreme Court hearing, without any hearing since August 11.
The twin petitions clubbed for hearing together had been filed by Goa Congress president Girish Chodankar against 10 Congress MLAs who had defected to the BJP as also another by Sudin Dhavalikar, the lone MLA of Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party (MGP) against the defection of his party’s two MLAs. Most of the defectors are ministers in the BJP government led by Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant.
