Abdul Aziz (K.M.) vs Deputy Inspector-General Of Police And ... on 29 January, 1966
16. Apart from the above, it is apposite to refer to the decision in
Reguhnath K.M. v. Inspector General of Police and Others [2011
(3) KHC 614] wherein this Court had, in a similar instance, observed that
the Election Commission must alertly and strictly act to ensure that none
deviate from the path of propriety and virtue expected of him. This Court
had, when apprehensions of threat to free and fair elections were brought
up in various writ petitions, observed that it is the duty of the Election
Commission to ensure zealously that no voter is deprived of his right to
exercise his franchise on account of obstruction or the climate of violence
which is said to prevail in some areas/ booths. The assurance offered by
the Election Commission of India in that regard was even accepted by the
court and declined to issue any specific directions in that regard.
