This query is : Resolved
My name is present in the electoral roll of the Shillong Cantonment Board and I applied for inculsion of my name in another ward but it was denied because i had also stated in a affidavit that i had stayed out of the cantonment area, I submitted my nomination paper which was rejected, now i have filed a case that i was not allowed to contest the election inspite of my name being in the electoral roll.
Please if any one could give me details of similar cases so that I may win this suite.

You need to specify the grounds for rejection of nomination. Only then we can help you by providing the case laws.

I am registered as a voter but my house was demolished before the election yet my name is present when I filed my nomination I was allowed to but on the day of scrutiny I was rejected saying I did not live in the Cantonment Area. I have filed a case but there is always a delay as usual its already one year that the election has passed. Now I am in the last stage where I am filing a written arguement may be next month, Please Help
