Former IPS Debasish challenges EC's nomination rejection, moves Supreme Court

• Former IPS Debasish Dhar,challenges EC's decision in Supreme Court, alleging procedural irregularities
• EC's rejection of nomination based on absence of 'no dues certificate' prompts legal battle
• High Court's refusal for immediate hearing shifts focus to Supreme Court for resolution

Former IPS officer Debasish Dhar,, BJP's candidate for Birbhum Lok Sabha seat in Bengal, has filed a petition in the Supreme Court against the Election Commission's decision to cancel his nomination. The Supreme Court has accepted Devashish's application, and the hearing is scheduled to take place soon, marking a significant legal battle amidst ongoing election fervor.

The Election Commission rejected Devashish's nomination citing the absence of a 'no dues certificate' from the state government, raising questions about procedural fairness. Despite Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's claim that the state government had not issued such certificates, the Commission upheld its decision, prompting Devashish to seek legal recourse. With the High Court declining an immediate hearing, all attention now turns to the Supreme Court for a pivotal verdict on the matter.
