Delhi HC sets aside mayor's decision for repoll to elect MCD standing committee members

The Delhi High Court May 23 set aside the decision of Mayor Shelly Oberoi to call for a repoll to elect six members of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) standing committee and directed her to declare forthwith the results of the poll held on February 24.

Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav said the mayor, also the returning officer, acted beyond her powers and her decision was legally impermissible.
