Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the disqualification of four members of the Bihar Legislative Assembly by the then Speaker under the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution. The court noted that the disqualification order was stayed, allowing the members to retain their status during the interim period. Given that the 15th Legislative Assembly had already dissolved and the 17th Assembly was in session, the court found the matter to be moot and did not provide further relief to the appellants.
