KOLKATA, April 23: Mr Kedar Nath Yadav, an advocate of Calcutta High Court, had filed a writ petition claiming compensation for the victims of police firing at Nandigram and making the West Bengal Governor a respondent in this case. In the petition, Mr Yadav quoted the Governor’s statement on this incident as published in the newspapers. That was the reason why he had made the Governor a respondent. When the matter came up for hearing before the Division Bench of Mr Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghose and Mr Justice Biswanath Somadder, the Bench asked the petitioner to delete the Governor’s name and to amend the petition’s cause title.
