SC grants two weeks to BJP and Congress to file their response on whether they were willing to form the government in Delhi.

The BJP and Congress pleaded the Supreme Court to hear the matter after the results of the general election are out to examine if a viable government in Delhi can be formed. The Supreme Court, however, gave only two weeks time. A bench led by Justice R M Lodha said that this matter cannot be left in a limbo and posted the matter for April 17.

Both the parties opposed a formal request by the court to the Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung to reconsider his decision on keeping the assembly in suspended animation. They said the LG may also want to wait till the results of the 2014 general elections are out.
