In a setback to the Narendra Modi government, the Gujarat High Court, in a majority decision, today upheld the appointment of Lokayukta by the Governor while dismissing the plea of the state challenging it.
Justice V M Sahai, who was given the task of hearing the petition challenging the appointment of Lokayukta following the split verdict of a division bench, said, “I could not agree with Justice Sonia Gokani of the division bench on the points of difference, which were referred to me.”
In his verdict, he said, “I concur with the views of my brother judge Akil Kureshi.”
