MP High Court Issues Notices on Meenakshi Natarajan's Rajya Sabha Nomination PetitionPreviousNext

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has issued notices to three BJP Rajya Sabha MPs, the Returning Officer, and the Election Commission regarding Congress leader Meenakshi Natarajan's petition challenging the rejection of her nomination in the June Rajya Sabha elections. Natarajan's nomination was rejected for allegedly concealing a pending Telangana court case. The court scheduled the next hearing for September 11, with the petition also questioning the acceptance of BJP candidates' nominations.
