Chandigarh, May 20
Over four months after the Vidhan Sabha membership of former Congress MLA from Kalka Pardeep Chaudhary was revoked by the Haryana Speaker following his conviction by a Nalagarh court, the membership was restored on Thursday following advice by the state’s Advocate General (AG).
“The membership of Chaudhary has been restored today following legal advice from AG on the petition filed by the former legislator. A notification to his effect will be issued today and Election Commission will be informed accordingly,” Speaker Gian Chand Gupta said here.
Gupta, however, clarified that the membership would be restored with effect from April 19, the date on which Himachal Pradesh High Court stayed the conviction and not January 14, the date his membership was revoked.
