What service rules can do

He has submitted Medical Certificate

Only one thing remains, whether he intimated his sickness and said the MC will follow.

You have not issued any notice in the meantime

Someone has verbally complained with regard to his fighting elections

No evidence or written complaint

Even if you enquire Panchayat will say , he did not contest , as the Doctor will be of same village

Grant him leave on Medical grounds honoring Doctors Certificate .

If you want to raise his hypertension , the choice is yours .

But be Sure while you do this Your tension will also increase

Case is a Non Starter for the Administration unless Soild Proof is there . With Solid proof he can be terminated.

You must have the evidence of contesting election. If it is against service rules you can follow the disciplinary procedure and even dismiss him.
