The Supreme Court today said that it will hear in March a batch of pleas challenging the government's Electoral Bond scheme which allows for anonymous funding to political parties.
A bench of Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud and Justice PS Narasimha posted the matter for hearing in the third week of March.
It also said that two other petitions --one raising the issue of bringing political parties under the Right to Information Act (RTI Act) and the other regarding the certification under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) for political funding, are distinct from the case of the electoral bonds and will be heard separately.
The bench posted the matters for hearing in April.
