New Delhi The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear on Monday a batch of pleas challenging the appointment of Jharkhand DGP Anurag Gupta on grounds that due process was not followed.
A bench of CJI BR Gavai and justices K Vinod Chandran and NV Anjaria is scheduled to hear the petitions challenging Gupta's appointment.
Several petitions have been filed, including by BJP leader Babulal Marandi, who has challenged the appointment of Gupta as DGP of the state. On July 24, the top court agreed to hear a plea of a social activist after senior advocate Anjana Prakash said the guidelines for appointment of DGP laid down by this court were not followed in Gupta's case.
