New Delhi, Oct 14: The Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe allegations made by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi regarding manipulation of the electoral rolls in the Bengaluru Central constituency during the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
A bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi directed petitioner Rohit Pandey to approach the Election Commission of India (ECI) instead, stating that the court was “not inclined to entertain the petition” in its current form.
“We have heard the petitioner’s counsel. We are not inclined to entertain the petition, which is purportedly filed in the public interest. The petitioner may pursue the matter
