The Supreme Court Today (Jan 3) refused to hear Congress MLA TD Rajegowda’s plea challenging “vague allegations” made by BJP leader DN Jeevaraja, who questioned his 2023 Karnataka election win in the High Court. Rajegowda argued the claims, like using black money, lacked evidence, but the Court noted evidence could be submitted later. It referred to its 2024 order allowing objections on evidence admissibility during trial, stating, “‘Admissibility’ or ‘relevance’ is the word used … It takes care of your concern.”
