Bar Council Of Delhi And Anr. Etc vs Surjeet Singh And Ors. Etc. Etc on 1 May, 1980

6. Mr. Dhorde, refers to a decision of the Supreme Court, rendered in the case of "Bar Counsel of Delhi and Another V. Surjeet Singh" reported in AIR 1980 SC 1612, which was a case wherein the electoral roll, pursuant to proviso, which was found to be ultra vires of the Delhi Bar Council Election Rules, had been invalidated by the Supreme Court and in the circumstances considered that an electoral roll prepared with such proviso is completely vitiated and shall be liable to be set aside, further finding that an alternate remedy in respect of said elections held on basis of an electoral roll under a provision which is void and ultra vires, relating to preparation of electoral rolls, in such cases, would not detain exercise of powers of the Court, particularly under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. In the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, the court had considered that Rule 34 of the Bar Council of Delhi Elections Rules, 1968 was not a remedy at all.

Thus, that case appears to be with reference to the proviso which was found to be ultra vires and that an election Tribunal in such cases would not be able to declare the provision to be ultra vires. So the supreme court appears to have ruled, as referred to above.

In said case, under the amendment a necessity of passage of two years as a member before being considered as a voter is mandatory and in that case the division bench appears to have ruled that the persons who were on the date of amendment otherwise eligible as voter, their voting right would not be affected by amendment and the amendment would be applicable prospectively.
