Process ensures degree of accountability with respect to donations they raise, says petition
The Delhi High Court on Thursday asked the Election Commission to respond to a petition seeking to formulate and notify a model procedure for intra-party elections and its incorporation in the constitutions of all political parties.
A bench of Chief Justice D.N. Patel and Justice Jyoti Singh asked the poll panel to submit its response before the next date of hearing on December 23.
The High Court’s order came on a petition filed by C. Rajashekaran, a lawyer himself and one of the founding members of Kamal Haasan’s political party Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM).
