NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Monday refused to examine a plea seeking cancellation of AAP’s registration, alleging it failed to disclose criminal antecedents of the party and its candidates in the upcoming assembly elections.
The petitioner urged a bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela to direct the Election Commission of India to cancel the party’s registration arguing not disclosing antecedents was in violation of Supreme Court’s directions.
The SC mandates publishing criminal antecedants by candidates and political parties, said the plea filed by one Ashwin Mudgal.
