Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that under Article 243-U of the Constitution, the State Election Commission is obligated to conduct timely elections for the Municipal Corporation, and that the timeframe provided by the Commission for delimitation and election was justified. The Court emphasized that the authorities must adhere to the constitutional mandate to ensure elections are held before the expiry of the existing Municipal Corporation's term. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the High Court's decision to accept the Commission's timeline for conducting elections.
