In a blow to former Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan, the Bombay High Court today dismissed his appeal to recall an earlier order refusing to delete his name from the multi-crore Adarsh Housing Society scam case.

Justice M L Tahaliyani refused to grant any relief to the senior Congress leader. Chavan had filed a petition in December last year seeking to recall an order passed by Justice Tahaliyani refusing CBI the permission to drop his name from the Adarsh case.
