(1.) In present election petition this Court has passed following order on 29/8/2023:
(2.) The issue raised before this Court is, whether due to efflux of time this election petition, which is arising out of a dispute of General Election-2014, when not only tenure of that Lok Sabha was already over in 2019 but tenure of present Lok Sabha is about to be over in 2024, i.e. within few months, has become infructuous or if survives, it would only for an academic purpose?
(3.) In order to appreciate the rival submissions on above referred issue, few facts which are not in dispute are necessary to refer hereinafter.
