Election Law

India is the World's largest democracy. Principles of Universal Adult Franchise are well-enshrined in the Constitution of India. In such a political set-up, Election process forms a crucial part of the system.

We represent aggrieved people who have suffered during Election process or who wish to challenge orders passed by Returning officers, Election Commission or any other bureaucrat acting in administrative or quasi judicial capacity. Be it elections to the Parliament, State Legislature, Municipal Corporation, Panchayats or any other polls, we are well versed with all applicable laws, rules and applicable code of conduct.

Under the Representation of People Act, 1951, the High Court has jurisdiction to try election disputes under S. 80A. The appeal lies to the Supreme Court. Numerous other Laws, Bye-laws and regulations govern the election process. We provide able guidance and advice to candidates about the procedure and applicable rules. We also represent clients before the High Court of Punjab & Haryana and the Supreme Court of India.

We also represent aggrieved people who have suffered during Election process or who wish to challenge orders passed by Officers in elections to the Clubs, Societies, Universities, Colleges or any other institution of similar nature. Certain institutions have Central Rules like the 'Election of students union in Medical College/Institution/University Regulations, 2009' passed by the Medical Council of India. In this regard, we challenge order passed by the Grievance cell under the Grievance Redressal Mechanism of the regulations before appropriate Courts.
