"We Can't Control Polls": Supreme Court To Prashant Bhushan In VVPAT Case | Read
The Supreme Court today said it is not the controlling authority for elections and cannot dictate the functioning of Election Commission, a constitutional authority. The remarks came during the hearing on petitions seeking thorough cross-verification of votes cast on Electronic Voting Machines (EVM) with paper slips generated through the VVPAT system. The court has reserved the judgment for now. The bench of Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Dipankar Datta said it cannot act on mere suspicion.
