casestatus.in Summary

Summary: Gadnis Bhawani Shankar v. Faleiro Eduardo Martinho (2000) The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of an election petition challenging a 1999 Rajya Sabha election from Goa. The court held that a candidate who withdrew his nomination must still be joined as a party-respondent if allegations of corrupt practice are made against him under Section 82(b) of the Representation of the People Act, 1951. The petitioner failed to implead withdrawn candidate Luis Alex Cardozo despite alleging he committed bribery by accepting gratification in exchange for voting, making the petition fatally defective.
