SHILLONG: The NPP-led coalition has sought a week’s time to file an affidavit in the High Court of Meghalaya in response to the petition of the Congress-led alliance to continue the session in GHADC to take up the no-confidence motion.
The petition filed by MDC Stevie Marak was heard by the high court on Monday and the next hearing will be held on December 11.
The newly-elected deputy chairman of KHADC, Mettrinson G Momin, said that the case was filed against the action of the KHADC chairman Denang Sangma to adjourn the House without taking up the listed no-confidence motion. The GHADC chairman, who is camping in Shillong, will meet Chief Minister Conrad Sangma and District Council Affairs Minister James Sangma.
To a question, James said he cannot comment on the GHADC as it is under judicial consideration.
