JAYRAJBHAI JAYANTIBHAI PATEL vs ANILBHAI JAYANTIBHAI PATEL .

The Supreme Court upheld the Gujarat High Court's decision to set aside the election of the Appellant as President of Anand Municipality, citing violations of the Gujarat Municipalities Act, 1963, specifically Section 32. The Court found that the arrests of two councillors just before the election were orchestrated to prevent their participation, constituting an abuse of power and unfair means. Consequently, the Court declared Vijaybhai Haribhai Patel as the duly elected President of the Municipality.
