Marandi’s plea to take usual time

The Supreme Court on Thursday declined to grant urgent hearing to Jharkhand
Vikas Morcha (JVM) leader Babu Lal Marandi on his petition alleging repeated
misuse of Article 164(4) of the Constitution in appointing non-legislator chief
minister in the state.

A vacation bench of Justices G.S. Singhvi and C.K. Prasad told Mr Marandi’s
counsel Anurag Kumar that the petition would be taken up in a routine manner
when he made a special mention for its early hearing.
Mr Marandi, heading the
11-member JVM group in the state assembly had moved the SC on Tuesday raising an
important constitutional question on the alleged “misuse” of Article 164 (4)
repeatedly in the state with the governor allowing incumbent chief minister
Shibu Soren of JMM taking oath thrice but never fulfilling the condition of
getting elected as an MLA. According to the petition, Mr Soren took the benefit
of Article 164(4) in March 2003, August 2008 and December 2009.
