re: Section 49-0 of Indian Constitution |

Its bullshit insofar as...
Firstly, the Indian Constitution comprises Articles, not sections...
Secondly, there is no Section 49-0. Article 49 of the Indian Constitution deals with "Protection of monuments and places and objects of national importance". The said Article does not contain any sub-articles.
Thirdly, Articles 324 through 329 deal with elections and their conduct. I read these after seeing this post and they do not contain any such provisions referred to below.
Lastly, I am not a constitutional lawyer but I do not believe either our Constitution or any rules framed thereunder (by the Election Commission or any other competent authority) would have contained this sort of a legislation to invalidate an election.
I would gladly suffer a correction of my last expressed view but will be disappointed as well if it were true as I then believe there have to be better safeguards in our electoral process.
Cheers
