Anticipating that the government will challenge the High Court order in the Apex Court, a couple of petitioners in the ward reservation case in the High Court has moved the Supreme Court by filing a caveat on Monday noon.
Goa Forward Chief Vijai Sardesai in a tweet has confirmed that the petitioners have already filed a caveat before the Supreme Court on Monday at 3 pm. In his tweet, Sardesai said “we always knew that this government led by Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, which has scant regard for law will never respect verdict of the High Court.
That’s why we have already filed a caveat before the Supreme Court today at 3.30 pm”, Sardesai said.
Sources in the know informed the petitioners who were associated with the Goa Forward chief has moved the Supreme Court with a caveat through its lawyers based in the national capital.
The caveat has been filed to ensure that the Apex Court hears the petitioners before granting any relief to the government if the later prefers challenging the High Court order in the Supreme Court.
