Supreme Court Dismisses Request on Rajya Sabha Bypolls - (25 Jun 2019)

ELECTION

Supreme Court has dismissed a petition by the Gujarat Congress challenging the Election Commission's decision to hold separate bypolls to two Rajya Sabha seats that fell vacant after BJP's Amit Shah and Smriti Irani moved to the Lok Sabha. The Congress, which had sought concurrent elections to the two seats, had accused the election panel of bias, calling its decision "arbitrary and illegal".
