Acting on an application moved last week by Shweta Bhatt, wife of former IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, seeking an early listing of her main petition seeking armed security for her family from the state at its expense, the Gujarat High Court ordered that the main petition be listed on August 19.
On July 12, Shweta Bhatt submitted that her main petition was heard last on May 8, at which time the state government had sought time. Thereafter the matter was listed for May 10 but due to paucity of time, the matter was not heard.
