AP High Court dismissed the re-notification orders of SEC

The AP High court gave a huge shock to SEC Nimmagadda Ramesh Kumar. The court quashed the orders issued by the SEC allowing re-nominations in the municipal elections. The High Court also quashed orders to seize the volunteers’ tabs.

The SEC has allowed re-nominations for 14 wards in Tirupati, Punganur, Rayachoti, and Erraguntla. It has also directed to seize the volunteers’ tabs till the end of elections. Against this backdrop, the Jagan government challenged these decisions in court and the court finally dismissed the orders.

In Chittoor district, 6 in Tirupati, 3 in Punganur, and in Kadapa district, 2 in Rayachoti, and 3 in Erraguntla wards were given the opportunity to re-nominate for the Municipal polls.

The government has challenged in the high court the orders given by the SEC to keep ward volunteers away from municipal elections and seize their mobiles. The state government has filed a Lunch motion petition on SEC orders in the AP High court.

On the other hand, Nimmagadda has issued key directions to the collectors on municipal polls nomination withdrawal. He made it clear that the nominations should not be withdrawn without the presence of the candidate and the entire withdrawal process should be videotaped.

He said that the Election Commission had received complaints from the opposition parties about the forced withdrawal of the nominations. Under these grounds, SEC has taken this decision.
