New Delhi, May 15 (PTI) The Supreme Court will hear tomorrow the petition filed by Sikkim High Court Chief Justice P D Dinakaran alleging bias on the part of a Rajya Sabha- appointed panel probing charges of judicial misconduct and corruption against him.
The apex court on April 29 had stayed the probe by the committee after Justice Dinakaran had expressed apprehension of a biased probe due to the presence of senior advocate P P Rao in the panel and posted the matter for hearing before a vacation court.
It had asked the three-member panel headed by Justice Aftab Alam of the Supreme Court to respond to the plea by Justice Dinakaran seeking recusal of Rao from the panel.
Besides Justice Alam and Rao, the third member of the panel is Karnataka High Court Chief Justice J S Khehar.
