SC upholds nomination of three MLAs by Puducherry L-G Bedi
The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the decision of Puducherry Lieutenant Governor Kiran Bedi to nominate three BJP-affiliated persons as MLAs, ruling, "L-G has the power to nominate." Bedi's decision was challenged by the Congress which argued that she should have consulted the ruling party. The three nominated MLAs are V Saminathan, KG Shankar and S Selvaganapathy.
