New Delhi May 11 (IANS) Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi on Friday hailed his party s decision to withdraw the petition challenging Rajya Sabha Chairman M. Venkaiah Naidu s rejection of an impeachment motion against Chief Justice Dipak Misra.
"Good and wise decision of Congress not to pursue impeachment issue with Cong MPs in SC any further " he tweeted.
Two Congress MPs withdrew their petition challenging Venkaiah Naidu s rejection of the motion against Justice Misra on May 8 after the court refused to give details of the administrative order that led to setting up of a constitutional bench to hear the matter.
Rajya Sabha members Pratap Singh Bajwa and Amee Yajnik had moved the top court alleging that Naidu s rejection of the motion was politically motivated.
