Madhu Koda

Former Jharkhand CM and convicted coal scam participant Madhu Koda has decided to withdraw his petition from the Supreme Court.

The SC dismissed Madhu Koda's plea to stay his conviction in a coal block allocation case, barring him from the upcoming Assembly elections.

The CBI opposed Koda's request, arguing it is not maintainable. Senior advocate RS Cheema, representing the CBI, pointed out that the court dismissed a similar petition by Koda in May 2020
