💨 Abstract

The Delhi High Court has dismissed a plea challenging the election of AAP MLA Durgesh Pathak from the Rajinder Nagar constituency in the 2022 Delhi assembly by-election. The petitioner alleged that Pathak had not maintained proper accounts and fabricated expenses, but the court held that this did not amount to a corrupt practice and did not affect the election results. The court's decision relied on a previous decision by the Supreme Court.
