Case : Amar Sing vs Jaya prada

The apex court had on November 10 decided to make the reference after Attorney General G.E. Vahanvati agreed that the issue needs to be settled by a larger bench as the apex court’s earlier judgement in the Vishwanathan case was not clear on certain aspects of the anti-defection law.
