SRI BARU RAM vs SHRIMATI PRASANNI & OTHERS

The Supreme Court held that to establish corrupt practice under Section 123(7) of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, it is necessary to prove that the appellant appointed the polling agent, which was not established in this case. The Court found that the High Court's inference regarding the appointment was not supported by legal evidence. Additionally, the Court upheld the rejection of the nomination of J, stating that he failed to comply with Section 33(5) by not producing the required electoral roll, thus affirming the proper rejection under Section 36(2)(b).
