Gujarat legislator Chottubhai Vasava, who is the acting president of Yadav’s faction, mentioned the matter before a bench headed by the acting Chief Justice Gita Mittal for urgent hearing on the issue in view of Gujarat Assembly polls.
Advocate Nizam Pasha, appearing for Vasava, told the bench also comprising Justice C Hari Shankar, that Election Commission’s November 17 order should be quashed as it has “gravely erred” in granting JD(U)’s official symbol, Arrow, to the Nitish Kumar faction.
After a brief hearing, the bench listed the matter for urgent hearing tomorrow. Advocate Gopal Singh, appearing for Nitish Kumar’s faction, opposed the plea saying the Election Commission of India has heard the matter on different occasions and has rightly passed its directions.
