Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the right to vote for individuals residing in illegally constructed buildings within a Cantonment area, specifically under Rule 10 (3) of the Cantonment Electoral Rules, 2007. The Court upheld the necessity for substantial compliance with the electoral rules, affirming that unauthorized constructions should be marked as such in electoral rolls. The Court ultimately directed the Cantonment Board to prepare the electoral rolls in accordance with the Act and the Rules, ensuring that the rights of lawful residents are protected while addressing the status of encroachers.
