Maharashtra to seek legal opinion on opposition shutdown call
Saturday, July 03, 2010 10:41:44 AM,
Agencies |

Mumbai:
The Maharashtra Government has decided to seek legal opinion on
restraining Opposition parties on going ahead with the 'Bharat
Bandh' on July 5 to protest the hike in petroleum products.
State that the government is seeking
the experts' opinion on the Supreme court's order pertaining to
Bandhs and strike, Chief Minister Ashok Chavan said, ''After getting
feedback from legal experts, we may decide to move the court to get
a stay on the proposed bandh."
In a landmark verdict in 1998, the
Supreme Court held that all such shutdown calls were "illegal and
unconstitutional" means of protest, Chavan pointed out.
At the same time, he said the state was fully geared to tackle the
shutdown and all essential services, including Mumbai's lifelines --
the suburban trains and BEST buses -- would ply.
Also, care will be taken to ensure
that nobody is forced to join the shutdown Monday and people are
allowed to go about their normal routine as usual, the chief
minister said.
The shutdown, to protest the recent hike in prices of petrol,
kerosene and cooking gas, has drawn support from the Shiv Sena and
the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena.
Besides, the Communist Party of India, Communist Party of India
Marxist, Revolutionary Socialist Party and Forward Bloc have issued
a joint statement announcing a 12-hour All-India shutdown to protest
the hike on the same day.
