A bench of Justices Hrishikesh Roy and SVN Bhatti noted the submission of senior advocate Sonia Mathur, appearing for BJP leader Rajiv Babbar, that her caveat was not mentioned in the office report and she could not file a response as the petition was served late evening on Thursday.
The bench listed the matter for hearing on Monday, September 30.
