Mohammed Faizal’s protest against Praful Patel
Faizal wrote a petition to the Kerala High Court to suspend his conviction and avoid his disqualification as an MP, as this would result in a by-election. The Kerala High Court, on 25 January 2023, suspended the conviction of Faizal and others involved until the disposal of the appeal, calling the circumstances rare.
Observing that it is important to decriminalise politics and to avoid expensive by-elections for society’s benefit at the same time, the Kerala High Court said,
Decriminalisation of politics is an essential requirement of every democracy. As a constitutional court, it is the bounden duty to advance constitutional objectives, including purity in politics. However, those lofty principles cannot be the reason for denying the application of the principles of rule of law. The societal interest in averting an expensive election, that too, when the elected candidate can continue for a limited period alone if the fresh election is conducted, cannot be brushed aside by this court.”
Supreme Court requested reconsideration of Faizal’s suspension to Kerala High Court in August 2023. Faizal’s conviction was stayed by the High Court on 4 October 2023, disqualifying him as an MP.
Lok Sabha membership of Mohammed Faizal was restored on 9 October 2023 by the orders of the Supreme Court. check sources The Times Of India
