Bombay HC Allows Journalists To Contest Mumbai Press Club Polls, Declines Interim Relief To Expelled Member
Bombay High Court allowed journalists Anil Singh, Madhu Nainan and O.P. Tiwari to contest Mumbai Press Club elections after permitting amendments to their plea over rejected nominations.
Justice Arif Doctor allowed the plaintiffs to amend their application to include other members whose nominations were rejected.
In a separate case, the court declined interim relief to expelled journalist Gurbir Singh, finding substantial compliance with natural justice.
Gurbir Singh was expelled for six years over a meeting at the Mumbai Press Club involving accused in the Bhima Koregaon case.
