2019 LS poll | ‘How can disclosure of truth be called suppression of material facts’, asks Kanimozhi in SC
The Hindu
The Supreme Court on Wednesday said it understood DMK MP Kanimozhi Karunanidhi’s stand that she could not be unfairly accused of “suppression of material facts” for simply disclosing the truth in her nomination papers for the 2019 general elections that her husband was a foreign citizen and did not hold a PAN.
A Bench led by Chief Justice Sharad A. Bobde was hearing an appeal filed by Ms. Kanimozhi against the Madras High Court’s decision to examine a petition filed by A. Santhana Kumar challenging her election as the Thoothukudi MP in 2019. The Supreme Court had stayed the High Court proceedings in January last year. Senior advocate P. Wilson, for Ms. Kanimozhi, said Mr. Kumar was a voter who had embarked on a frivolous litigation. His election petition ought to be dismissed.More Related News
