Delhi HC to hear O P Sharma’s plea on March 2

BJP MLA O P Sharma, suspended from Delhi Legislative Assembly for two sessions, today moved the Delhi High Court for early hearing of his plea challenging the action taken against him.

He sought an early hearing as the Budget Session was likely to be convened by the middle of March and he wanted to attend that.

Allowing his plea for early hearing, Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva listed the matter for consideration on March 2.

Sharma was suspended from the Assembly on March 31 last year for two sessions for allegedly making derogatory remarks against AAP legislator Alka Lamba.

Sharma’s lawyer had earlier claimed that he has apologised and so has his party and so he be allowed to sit in the sessions.

The court, however, has not yet issued any interim direction allowing the legislator to sit in the sessions.

The Delhi government had earlier alleged before the court that Sharma in the past too had engaged in “immoral, violent and appalling behaviour”.

The government has opposed the maintainability of Sharma’s plea challenging his suspension.
