💨 Abstract

The Delhi High Court ruled that the Election Commission of India (ECI) does not have the authority to review whether a registered political party is adhering to its constitution or scrutinizing the conformity of its internal elections with constitutional provisions. The court's decision was based on the Representation of People (RP) Act, which limits the ECI's task to considering applications for political party registration and ensuring any subsequent changes are communicated for accurate records.
