The Bombay High Court on Thursday said political parties are making a mockery of the judiciary by not following its orders prohibiting putting up of illegal hoardings and banners in the state.

"Since a year we have been passing orders asking political parties not to put up illegal banners and posters. But 90 per cent political parties are not paying heed to this. Nobody is abiding by the orders. They are making a mockery of us," a division bench of Justices A S Oka and Shalini Phansalkar-Joshi said.
