The decision on Sachin Pilot's fight against the Congress will be announced on Friday.
Rajasthan Speaker said today that he had decided to go to the Supreme Court against the delay to "avert a constitutional crisis", a day after he was asked by a court to defer action against Sachin Pilot and other Congress rebels.
Speaker CP Joshi, who served disqualification notices to 19 rebel MLAs including Sachin Pilot for "anti-party activities", was first asked to defer action by three days last week. Yesterday, he was asked by the Rajasthan High Court not to take any action until Friday, when it will announce its decision on the rebels' petition challenging the notices.
