SC refuses to entertain plea by rebel AAP MLA Devendra Sehrawat

The Supreme Court today refused to entertain a plea by rebel AAP MLA Devender Sehrawat challenging his disqualification.

Delhi Assembly Secretariat had issued a notice to him under the anti-defection law for reportedly joining the BJP.

A vacation bench comprising Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice B R Gavai told the counsel appearing for Sehrawat that the



lawmaker can raise his grievances during the proceedings on the disqualification notice before the Assembly Speaker.

Sehrawat, an MLA from Bijwasan Assembly segment, had moved the apex court on Wednesday claiming that he has still not taken the primary membership of the BJP and the disqualification notice issued to him was arbitrary and illegal.
