Today, On 24th September, The Delhi High Court rejected a plea seeking the use of ballot papers instead of EVMs for elections. The court noted that the Supreme Court has already put a final seal on the matter, ending the dispute.
The Supreme Court refused to entertain an independent candidate’s plea against the rejection of his nomination for the upcoming elections. The candidate was advised to pursue alternative legal remedies, as the Court stated that such matters should be challenged through an election petition rather than at a pre-poll stage. The petition was ultimately dismissed.
