바카라We will pass appropriate orders,바카라 said a bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad after hearing the petitioner who asserted that it has been seen before the trial court that Jain has 바카라lost his memory바카라 and therefore cannot be permitted to continue as a lawmaker.
The Delhi High Court Tuesday reserved its order onpublic interest litigation (PIL) seeking to declare AAP leader Satyendar Jain, arrested in a money laundering case, as a 바카라person with unsound mind바카라 and thus disqualify him from being a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) here and a minister.
바카라We will pass appropriate orders,바카라 said a bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad after hearing the petitioner who asserted that it has been seen before the trial court that Jain has 바카라lost his memory바카라 and therefore cannot be permitted to continue as a lawmaker.
The petitioner, Ashish Kumar Srivastava, claimed in his plea that Jain has 바카라himself declared that he lost his memory바카라 before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and informed the same to the trial court as well.
The petitioner told the court that ED is not an ordinary agency and any statement made to it is admissible in court and being a minister of state, the public may be affected if he has issued directions that he does not remember.
The plea, filed through lawyer Rudra Vikram Singh, has stated that in response to Jain's bail application before the trial court, the ED informed that the AAP leader has 바카라accepted that he had lost his memory due to severe Covid바카라 and 바카라the news of losing the memory is covered by all media sources and it is very much in the public domain바카라
바카라Continuing an unsound person with so many important portfolios of the Government is cheating the voters of Delhi, who have elected a person with a clean image and good mental health. Respondent No 5 (Jain) is holding an important portfolio in Government and because of his mental illness/unsound mind/memory loss the public of the NCT of Delhi will suffer a lot,바카라 the petition said.           Â
The petitioner thus asserted that in light of Article 191 (1)(b) of the Constitution clearly, which mandates that an MLA has to be disqualified if he is of 바카라unsound mind and stands so declared by a competent court, Jain cannot continue holding the important portfolio of a Delhi Cabinet Minister and enjoying the post of an MLA.
Last month, the high court dismissed a plea to suspend Jain from the Cabinet following his arrest in the money laundering case, saying it is for the chief minister to consider whether a person with a criminal background should be allowed to continue as a minister or not.
Jain was arrested on May 30 by ED under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and is presently in judicial custody.
