Hello
After ignoring the Bill for over a year, the Governor sent the Bill for the consideration of the President on November 23, 2023.
"We will admit it and consider everything," said the Division Bench comprising Chief Justice AJ Desai and Justice VG Arun while admitting the plea filed by RS Sasikumar.
Lokayukta asked the petitioner what was the relevance of the plea to reconsider the case as the Kerala High Court had already rejected a similar petition.
A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice A J Desai, Justice V G Arun dismissed complainant A Sasikumar's petition.
A full bench of the Lok Ayukta will be hearing the case on June 6.
The Lok Ayukta clarified that it had not called the complainant 'a rabid dog'.
It marks a severe departure from the 1264 cases registered in 2016
This implies that the full bench comprising three judges will consider the alleged CM's Distress Relief Fund misuse case involving Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and his cabinet colleagues.
Lok Ayukta criticised the complainant RS Sasikumar saying he was discrediting the institution.
The Lok Ayukta faced criticism after it referred its verdict in the case to a full bench (comprising three judges) last week.
