Court notices to bigwigs over phone bills
Staff Reporter
NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Wednesday issued notices to political parties whose members have telephone, power and hotel bills pending against them for enjoying these facilities provided to them by Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited, the New Delhi Municipal Council and the Indian Tourism Development Corporation when they were Members of Parliament.
Issuing the notices, a Division Bench of the Court comprising Justice A.P. Shah and Justice S. Muralidhar asked the respondents to reply why the dues of their members were not recovered by them.
The Court asked them to file the replies by January 14.
The Bench issued the notices following submission to it of a list of former MPs with their party affiliations and the dues to be recovered from them by the three public bodies.
These MPs together owe Rs.3 crore to NDMC, Rs.5 crore to MTNL and Rs.8 lakh to ITDC, the three public bodies said in their affidavits submitted to the Court.
The Lok Sabha Secretariat is already making deductions from the salaries of 62 sitting members of the Lower House to clear their pending phone and electricity bills issued by MTNL and NDMC.
