HC gives split verdict on disqualification of 18 AIADMK MLAs
The Madras High Court on Thursday delivered a split verdict in the case against disqualification of 18 rebel AIADMK MLAs in Tamil Nadu, thus referring the case to a third judge to decide. Last year, the MLAs who were supporting sidelined leader TTV Dhinakaran were disqualified by state Assembly Speaker P Dhanapal under the anti-defection law.
