New Delhi Court Summons Sunita Kejriwal on Charges of Violating Representation of the People Act
The wife of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, Sunita Kejriwal, has been summoned by a Delhi court on charges of getting her name registered in the voter list of two assembly constituencies, which is a violation of the Representation of the People (RP) Act. The court has taken this action based on an application filed by Bharatiya Janata Party leader Harish Khurana.
The allegations against Sunita Kejriwal state that she has violated the RP Act. After considering the testimony of the complainant and other witnesses, the court has concluded that there is a prima facie case against her. The offenses she is accused of are punishable under the RP Act. The court has issued summons to Sunita Kejriwal accordingly.
According to the RP Act, no citizen can file their nomination from more than one assembly. Violating this provision can result in a punishment of up to 2 years. Harish Khurana claims that Sunita Kejriwal is registered as a voter in both Sahibabad assembly constituency in Ghaziabad and Chandni Chowk assembly constituency in Delhi. This dual registration is a violation of the RP Act. Khurana has also alleged that Sunita Kejriwal should be punished under Section 31 of the RP Act for making false declarations.
The court’s decision to summon Sunita Kejriwal is a significant development in this case. It highlights the importance of adhering to the rules and regulations set forth by the Election Commission to maintain the integrity of the electoral process. It remains to be seen how the proceedings will unfold and what the outcome of this case will be.
