Plea in Delhi HC challenges election of Chirag Paswan as Lok Sabha MP


PTI, Jul 2, 2024, 4:50 PM IST

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday said a challenge to the election of Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) president Chirag Paswan from the Hajipur Lok Sabha seat in Bihar should be mounted in the Patna High Court, as it listed for hearing an election petition on the issue on August 28.

“How is this maintainable in this high court? The constituency is in the state of Bihar. It is better you withdraw (the plea) and go to the jurisdictional high court,” Justice Vikas Mahajan told the petitioner’s counsel.

“This court will not have the jurisdiction,” the judge orally said during the hearing.
