The Delhi High Court today did not pass any order on a plea against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Law Minister Somnath Bharti's recent dharna demanding action against some cops, saying a similar matter is pending before the Supreme Court.
Justice Manmohan, while taking the petition on record, said that he will pass orders only after the apex court decides the issue and posted the matter to March 6.
The petition alleged that the recent protest by Kejriwal and his cabinet minister created "anarchy" as some metro stations and roads, in and around Rail Bhawan here, had to be closed to the public.
The petition sought action against those responsible for "hooliganism" which resulted in blocking of public roads and metro stations.
