Lakshmi Charan Sen And Ors Etc vs A.K.M. Hassan Uzzaman And Ors. Etc on 8 May, 1985
"a. validity of laws relating to delimitation and allotment of seats
made under Article 243-ZA cannot be questioned in any court. No
election to a municipality can be questioned except by an election
petition. Moreover, it is well settled by now that if the election is
imminent or well under way, the court should not intervene to stop
the election process. If this is allowed to be done, no election will ever
take place because someone or the other will always find some excuse
to move the court and stall the elections. [para 12]
b. But the principles laid down in Lakshmi Charan Sen case[(1985)
4 SCC 689] will apply in full force to municipal elections because
various articles dealing with holding of municipal elections in Part IX-
A of the Constitution are similarly worded. In fact, highest importance
has been attached to holding of panchayat as well as municipal
elections by the Constitution.
