Kerala Home Secretary summoned by HC
Tuesday, June 29, 2010 11:48:30 AM, PTI
Kochi: Kerala High Court today directed the state Home Secretary to appear before it on July 5 and explain the reasons for the delay in filing counter-affidavit on a petition seeking a ban on Jamaat-e-Islami, alleged to be a fundamentalist organisation.
The direction was issued by a Division Bench comprising Chief Justice J Chelameswar and Justice P N Ravindran on a PIL by Islam Mada Probhadaka Sangam, a religious organisation, seeking banning the Jamaat-e-Islami.
When the matter, pending for over a year, came up today, the state sought more time to file the counter-affidavit.
The bench criticised the government's action of not filing counter and directed the Home Secretary to personally appear before the court on July 5.
"It is unfortunate that the government is not taking interest in such matters," it observed.
