The Andhra Pradesh High Court is poised to deliver its most awaited verdict on the contentious postal ballot issue, following a petition filed by the YSRCP party. The court has announced that the judgement will be delivered on June 1 at 6 pm, bringing an end to a legal battle that has sparked significant debate.
At the heart of the matter is the Election Commission's decision to validate postal ballots even in the absence of a seal. This move by the Commission was met with opposition from the YSRCP, prompting them to seek judicial intervention.
Throughout the proceedings, both sides presented their arguments before the court. The YSRCP, in its petition, challenged the Election Commission's stance on the validity of postal votes without proper sealing. On the other hand, the Election Commission defended its decision, arguing for the practicality and fairness of their approach.
