Plea for contempt action has been filed as there are repeated incidents of violence and false cases are being lodged against their members, says advocate Amar Dave, appearing for TMC
The Supreme Court on November 22 agreed to hear on November 23 the Trinamool Congress (TMC) Party’s plea seeking contempt action against the Tripura Government and others for failing to curtail violent incidents against Opposition parties in the run up to the upcoming local body polls.
A Bench of Justices D.Y. Chandrachud and A.S. Bopanna said it will hear the plea on Tuesday after advocate Amar Dave, appearing for TMC, said that despite court’s November 11 order the situation in the State is worsening.
“Yesterday, there was an incident. The situation in the State is very volatile and it has gone from bad to worse. The situation is worsening day by day,” he said.
