A writ petition seeking a direction to the election authorities to delete the name of Congress nominee from Palakurthy nominee in Assembly constituency Mamidala Yashaswini from the list of voters came up for hearing in Telangana High Court on Friday.
Ms. Yashaswini is listed as voter in the constituencies of Achampet Assembly and Nagarkurnool Parliament constituencies in the State. A citizen from Nagarkurnool district filed the plea contending that Ms. Yashaswini was a Non-Resident Indian and did not live in India for more than five months in the past five years.
A Bench of Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice N.V. Shravan Kumar, after hearing contentions of petitioner’s counsel, directed him to secure details of the draft of the revised electoral list and the date on which the final electoral revised list was published. The matter was adjourned November 15.
