"Central Staff, Give Credence": Top Court To Trinamool Over Plea Against Poll Body
The Trinamool Congress's arguments that a central government employee would necessarily go against them has a fallacy, the Supreme Court said today. That fallacy, the court pointed out, is the assumption itself and instead, the Trinamool should "give the government employees some credence".
The Supreme Court's observation comes just days after the Calcutta High Court upheld the decision of the Election Commission (EC) to appoint central government and public sector unit (PSU) employees as counting supervisors and assistants, dismissing a petition filed by the Trinamool.
