11. Furthermore, while enacting the Act of 1993, care has been taken by the State to include the grounds for declaring the election to be void under Section 19 of the said Act. Clause (i) of Section 19(b) of the Act of 1993 has no relevance in a case where a candidate withholds or suppress material information. This Court in a decision reported in AIR 2004 Kar. 471 [Bashiruddin Halhipparaga Vs. Rajashekhar Basavaraj Patil and Ors.] has considered the instructions given by the Election Commission and held that the model code of conduct is for the guidance of the political parties and the candidates and the said guidance do not say what would be the consequence if any of the guidance has been violated by the political parties and the candidates. Further, it held that though such guidance was issued by the Election Commission of India, there is no corresponding amendment to Section 100 of the Representation of the People Act, 1950.
