The Jabalpur bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court on Wednesday refused to pass any order on Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's plea to allow a CBI probe into the infamous Vyapam scam, saying that it will hear the matter on July 20 after the Supreme Court's order in the case.
Additional Advocate General Pushpendra Kaurav told media persons that the HC said that the matter was pending in the Supreme Court and it would hear the plea on July 20 after the apex court had passed its order.
The Congress party and others have moved the Supreme Court for a CBI probe into the Vyapam recruitment and admissions scam. Besides, there is a petition regarding Madhya Pradesh Governor Ramnaresh Yadav's removal from the post after his name had come up in the scam. The apex court has decided to club all the petitions and will hear the matter on July 9.
