Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of an election petition under Section 81 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, ruling that the petitioner failed to disclose material facts regarding alleged corrupt practices as defined under Section 123 of the Act. The Court emphasized the necessity of providing specific details in election petitions to substantiate claims of corrupt practices. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the election of the respondent as valid.
