Prajwal Revanna, grandson of former Prime Minister and JD(S) national president H.D. Deve Gowda, on Tuesday moved the High Court of Karnataka seeking a stay of its September 1 verdict of declaring his election to Lok Sabha from Hassan constituency as null and void.
He made the request for staying the verdict till he filed an appeal before the Supreme Court challenging the High Court’s verdict.
Justice K. Nataraja, before whom an interlocutory application filed by Mr. Prajwal came up for hearing, has adjourned hearing on the application till September 8 while asking the respondents, A. Manju and G. Devaraje Gowda, who filed petitions in 2019 questioning the legality of his election, to file their objections for staying the verdict.
