The Delhi High Court on Tuesday sought the Centre, AAP government and the Assembly's stand on a plea by BJP legislator Vijender Gupta seeking quashing of a notification nominating a group of MLAs to the municipal corporations. A bench of Justices G S Sistani and Jyoti Singh issued a notice to the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Assembly, the Aam Aadmi Party government and the lieutenant governor's office, seeking their response to the plea. The petition contends that a group of 13 MLAs were being nominated as councilors in the corporations.
