Court gives more time to Karunanidhi

Legal Correspondent

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday granted six weeks to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi, Chief Secretary L.K. Tripathy and three others to respond to the notice issued on a contempt petition filed by the All-India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) for allegedly violating a court order prohibiting the enforcement of a bandh in the State on October 1.

On October 29, the court issued notice to Union Minister T.R. Baalu for his alleged remarks on the judiciary. A Bench, headed by Justice B.N. Agrawal, had dispensed with the personal appearance of the alleged contemnors.

When the matter was taken up on Friday by a Bench that comprised Justices Agrawal and G.S. Singhvi, it was pointed out that replies were not filed.

The Bench granted six weeks to file replies and four weeks thereafter for an AIADMK rejoinder. The matter will be listed after 10 weeks.
