Putting up a brave face after the Supreme Court on Friday refused to stay the August 4 verdict of the Delhi high court on the L-G’s powers, the Aam Aadmi Party said that it should not be treated as a “setback” and the party has full faith on the judiciary.

“Terming it as a setback would be wrong as the Supreme Court has listed the matter for further hearing and also said that it may consider sending the petitions to a larger bench. The party has full faith on the judicial proceedings,” AAP Delhi convenor Dilip Pandey said.

The Delhi government has filed six appeals challenging the high court judgement that held the lieutenant-governor as the administrative head of the national capital. The apex court on Friday sought response from the Centre on these.

However, the SC refused to stay the operation of August 4 verdict of the high court and said it would rather list the matter for final hearing on November 15.
