Punjab Rao vs D. P. Meshram & Others on 26 October, 1964

We do not consider it necessary to discuss in detail the, evidence which has been given on behalf of the appellant to prove all these facts enumerated above - Almost all of them are supported by documentary evidence. The only question that needs consideration is whether these facts establish that, at the time of the general election in 1967, the appellant was professing Hindu religion.
