NEW DELHI: The Congress has alleged that Manipur Governor Najma Heptulla is delaying the decision on disqualification of 12 Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLAs. Abhishek Manu Singhvi addressing a press conference in New Delhi flanked by former Manipur CM Ibobi Singh said, ''Even after the September 2020 judgment of the High Court, which is under appeal now in the Supreme Court, but there is no stay, no order yet after more than five months, neither the Governor nor the Election Commission took any decision on the disqualification of 12 BJP MLAs.'' He added, ''This is nothing, but deliberate, unconstitutional, artificial delay to allow benefits to be reaped by a particular party.''
