Janata Dal (United) MP Sharad Yadav on 12 December approached the Delhi High Court against his disqualification as a Rajya Sabha member.
Earlier on 4 December, Yadav and Ali Anwar were disqualified from the Rajya Sabha.
Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu, who is also the
chairman of the upper house, issued the order stating that they cease to be Members of Parliament with immediate effect.
The JD(U) had earlier sought their disqualification on the grounds that they had attended a rally of opposition parties in Patna in violation of its direction.
