Sibal: Whip is appointed at the instance of political party and conveyed to speaker. How is governor talking about Gogawale being the whip? He's not concerned with it. That's the matter of the house.
15 March 2023 4:08 PM IST
Sibal: From the beginning to the end, the whole process is clearly political.
15 March 2023 4:08 PM IST
Sibal: See the injustice caused to us in this process. They don't file a reply. Now they say go back to speaker. There is no one fact which is not admitted.
15 March 2023 4:08 PM IST
Sibal: Then the argument is that this is fait accompli- Even if 16 had been disqualified, you'd still be minority. Mr Salve is right, that's all speculation.
15 March 2023 4:07 PM IST
Sibal: This court said don't file reply by 12th July, was it 7 days? Is it fair of the court, I'm sorry to say, if that is the mandatory rule, we should have said 7 days from the date.
15 March 2023 4:07 PM IST
Sibal: They've not filed a reply till date. 9 months.
15 March 2023 4:07 PM IST
Sibal: They say that under the mandatory rules, 7 days notice ought to be given. How many days notice have they got now?
15 March 2023 4:06 PM IST
Sibal: On 27th June, we're put in difficulty. On 29th June, we're put in difficulty. And when in Sept you passed this order, they misinterpreted.
15 March 2023 4:06 PM IST
Sibal: They say violence etc- On 27th when they moved this court, a statement was made by Mr Kaushik saying that adequate steps have been taken and no harm is caused to life etc of the MLAs.
15 March 2023 4:06 PM IST
Sibal: This is a mockery happening in our country. It's not about Maharashtra. It's about Meghalaya, it's about Manipur, it's about tomorrow UP- anything can happen anywhere. It's about our future!
