casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court dismissed Ranjeet Singh's appeal challenging Harmohinder Singh Pradhan's election to the Punjab Legislative Assembly. Singh alleged that Pradhan was disqualified under Section 9-A of the Representation of People Act, 1951 due to a subsisting liquor sale contract with the Punjab Government. The Court held that Section 9-A applies only to contracts for supplying goods or executing works undertaken by government, and that a liquor licensing contract does not fall within this scope, thus affirming the High Court's rejection of the disqualification claim. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
