Summary: In a heated court case, Ganesh Kumar Yadav challenged Capt. R. Tamil Selvan's election win, saying Selvan didn't reveal important information. However, the court found the complaint weak and dismissed it.
Ganesh Kumar Yadav complained about Capt. R. Tamil Selvan's victory in the 2024 elections from the Sion-Koliwada area. Yadav said Selvan didn't share important financial details, like a home loan and a legal decision.
"Ganesh Kumar Yadav got 65,534 votes while Capt. R. Tamil Selvan, with 73,429 votes, was declared the winner."
Capt. R. Tamil Selvan, with help from Senior Lawyer Dr. Veerendra Tulzapurkar, argued that the complaint was baseless. He said the missing details either didn't matter or had already been dealt with.
"The apartment was eventually bought in his daughter's name as the only owner."
The court, led by Judge Milind N. Jadhav, found the complaint lacking important details. It stressed the need for clear proof showing how the missing information affected the election result.
"The Election Petition is vague and lacks important details."
Home Loan: Yadav said Selvan didn't mention a Rs. 90 lakh home loan. Selvan explained that the loan was for his daughter's apartment, not his own responsibility.
Legal Decision: Yadav noted a legal decision against Selvan that wasn't disclosed. The court mentioned the decision was on hold, so it didn't need to be shared.
Form No. 26: Selvan was accused of not fully filling out Form No. 26. The court found no major problem that could cancel the election.
The court threw out Yadav's complaint, saying there was no valid reason to challenge the election. This decision shows how important solid evidence is in election disputes.
