Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined an election petition challenging the election of the appellant as a Member of the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly on grounds of improper rejection of 955 postal ballot papers. The High Court had allowed the petition, declaring the election void due to procedural irregularities and delays caused by the appellant. The Supreme Court reviewed the conduct of the parties and the validity of the postal ballots, ultimately addressing the legality of the election process and the impact of the rejected ballots on the election outcome.
