The Delhi High Court closed actor Celina Jaitly’s petition after her brother Vikrant Jaitly, detained in the UAE, stated he does not wish to communicate with her. The Court recorded his stance and directed authorities to continue providing legal assistance to him.
The Delhi High Court today(21st Jan) dismissed an appeal that challenged the use of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) in elections across various constituencies. The petitioner, Ramesh Chander, argued that under Section 61-A of the Representation of the People Act (RP Act), the Election Commission of India (ECI) should provide individual justifications for using EVMs in each constituency. However, the court did not accept this argument and dismissed the appeal.
