Justifying the filing of a Special Leave Petition (SLP) in the Supreme Court on Saturday, IT Minister Gudivada Amarnath said the aim was to initiate a discussion on the verdict given by the A.P. High Court earlier against the Acts pertaining to the three capitals.
Addressing the media here, Mr. Amarnath said there was a need for a discussion in the Supreme Court, as the verdict of the High Court was against the federal system.
He went on to say that the decision on the capital of the State was the prerogative of the State government and it was enshrined in the Constitution.
