New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear the plea of Aam Aadmi Party's Mayor candidate Shelly Oberoi demanding the mayor election be conducted in a time-bound manner.
A bench of Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justice Dipankar Datta said it will hear the case on 3 February after senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi mentioned the matter for urgent hearing.
The Delhi mayor election was stalled on 24 January as the House was adjourned indefinitely by the LG-appointed presiding officer following an uproar by some councillors.
The AAP won 134 of the 250 wards in the MCD polls held in December last year. The BJP managed to win 104 wards.
Oberoi in her plea has sought directions for the elections to take place in a time-bound manner and to ensure that the nominated members are not allowed to vote. (with ANI inputs)
