Ram Chandra Prasad Singh vs Sharad Yadav

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

Ram Chandra Prasad Singh appealed against a High Court order that rejected his application to submit additional documents in a case alleging that Rajya Sabha member Sharad Yadav had incurred disqualification under the Tenth Schedule by voluntarily abandoning party membership. The allegation was based on Yadav's repeated public statements against the party and its leadership and his alignment with a rival political party. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order, dismissing the appeal without permitting the submission of further material.
