The Supreme Court on July 29 forwarded to the Madras High Court a plea filed by former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister O. Panneerselvam against his expulsion from All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) in a recent general council meeting.
A Bench led by Chief Justice of India N.V. Ramana asked the High Court to examine the issues raised by Mr. Panneerselvam in three weeks.
"We deem it necessary that instead of keeping the matter here, we will send back the matter to the High Court for fresh consideration without being influenced by the orders passed by us. We request the High Court to dispose of the matter within a period of three weeks,” the Bench ordered.
