Election Petitions Should Ideally Be Disposed Within 6 Months: Karnataka HC

The Karnataka High Court observed that election petitions should be disposed within a period of six months, and should not be dragged. This has come as the court observed that elections petitions are usually dragged till the next election. The observation was made by Justice Krishna S Dixit in an election petition filed by Muniraju Gowda in 2018. Notably, Gowda had lost the RR Nagar assembly seat to Munirathna Naidu.
