MAHENDRA PAL vs RAM DASS MALANGER .

The appellant challenged the election of the respondent under the Representation of the People Act, 1951, alleging improper reception of invalid votes and counting irregularities that affected a narrow margin of three votes. The High Court of Himachal Pradesh rejected the election petition on a preliminary issue, holding that it lacked material facts and particulars and failed to furnish a cause of action. This appeal seeks to set aside that preliminary rejection.
