New Delhi (PTI): The Supreme Court on Friday issued a notice to Narmada Bachao Andolan activist, Medha Patkar, and 120 others on MP government's plea challenging a High Court order on paying them compensation in connection with their arrest and detention after a protest last year.
A Bench headed by Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan sought a response from Patkar and others on the state government's plea seeking a stay on the High Court order for paying a compensation of Rs 10,000 each to the 121 agitators who were arrested and detained in jails in Badwani and Indore on July 25 last.
The state government contended before the apex court that the agitators were produced before the Sub-Divisional Magistrate and were granted bail but could not be released as they had failed to furnish the bail bond.
