SC Cites Anti-Defection Law In TMC Rebel MPs Case

The Supreme Court reminded Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla to decide "expeditiously" on a plea seeking disqualification of 20 rebel TMC MPs who joined NCPI. The plea was filed by TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee. The court cited the 2020 Keisham Meghachandra ruling but did not set a deadline. The rebel MPs will file replies within four weeks.
