The Supreme Court on Wednesday suggested that Chidambaram MP Thol. Thirumavalavan file a separate petition highlighting his argument that the electoral bonds scheme discriminates against political parties with a small vote share.
Refusing to entertain an intervention by the MP, also president of the VCK, the Constitution Bench led by Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud said the issue raised by Mr. Thirumavalavan should not be mixed with the current challenge against the legality of the scheme that anonymises political donations.
