The Manipur Congress has submitted an application before the Speaker’s tribunal of the State Assembly in regards to the disqualification of State Forest Minister T Shyamkumar from the Legislative Assembly.
The application was filed by the Congress, after the Supreme Court had directed the Speaker to take a decision on the petition seeking disqualification of T Shyamkumar.
A case was filed by Congress MLAs K Meghachandra and Fajur Rahim seeking disqualification of the State Forest Minister under Anti-Defection Law.
T Shyamkumar, who won the Assembly Elections in the State on a Congress ticket, had joined the BJP later and is currently serving as the State Forest Minister.
