The Supreme Court on Monday refused to consider the BJP's petition challenging the Calcutta High Court order.
The single-judge judgment of the Calcutta High Court restrained the BJP from releasing advertisements allegedly violating the Model Code of Conduct during the Lok Sabha elections, in which the vacation bench of the Supreme Court comprising Justice JK Maheshwari and Justice KV Vishwanathan refused to intervene. “Prima facie, the advertisement is defamatory,” the bench said.
After the bench expressed reluctance to consider the matter, senior advocate PS Patwalia, appearing for the BJP, sought permission to withdraw the matter. After this, the case was dismissed as withdrawn.
