SC verdict puts govt. in a spot

Blame game in the LDF for inviting the censure
The Supreme Court judgment denying reprieve without trial for Left Democratic Front (LDF) leaders accused of creating disorder and destroying public property in the Assembly in 2015 appeared to have plunged the government and the ruling coalition into an awkward situation. The apex court’s damning order is being perceived widely as a setback for the LDF and a moral win for the United Democratic Front (UDF). (Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala had doggedly opposed the government’s move to set aside the case against the LDF leaders at multiple levels of the judiciary). The UDF has weaponised the SC order against the LDF government.More Related News
