The story so far: On Friday May 4, a three-judge Bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice of India N.V. Ramana referred the dispute between the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government and the Centre over who controls the Capital’s bureaucracy to a five-judge Constitution Bench to give an “authoritative pronouncement” on the matter.
The apex court listed the matter for hearing by the Constitution Bench on May 11, adding it must be concluded before May 15, allowing for a judgement to be prepared during the Court’s summer vacations beginning May 23.
