Summary:
A Division Bench headed by Chief Justice DN Patel asked the government to decide the issue as per law. As far as JNU sloganeering case is concerned, the petitioner has requested directions to the Delhi government to grant sanction. The counsel further argued the oath obliges the government to act in accordance with the letter and spirit of the Constitution of India. The public prosecutor had recently informed Patiala House court, where the case is pending, that the matter regarding grant of sanction is still pending to prosecute Kanhaiya Kumar and others in the JNU sedition case. The Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM) court had issued the summons to the investigating officer of the case and slated the matter for December 11..
