ABHAY S.OKA, SANJAY KISHAN KAUL

body2022
ORDER 1. The election process under the representation of the People Act, 1951 is monitored by a Constitutional Authority like Election Commission. Electronic Voting Machines (EVM) process has been utilized in our Country for decades now but periodically issues are sought to be raised. This is one such endeavor in the abstract. It appears that party which may not have got much recognition from the electorate now seeks recognition by filing petitions! 2. We are of the view that such petitions must be deterred and thus dismiss this petition with costs of Rs. 50,000/- to be deposited with Supreme Court Group-C (Non-Clerical) Employees Welfare Association within a period of four weeks from today. 3. Pending applications stand disposed of.
