Kolhapur: The Kolhapur bench of Bombay high court declined to grant an urgent hearing to a petition that has questioned certain decisions and administrative processes undertaken under the leadership of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, which were brought to the fore by a newspaper report.Asim Sarode, advocate for petitioners â Ratnagiri residents Prathamesh Gavankar and others â mentioned the matter before the bench of Justices Sharmila Deshmukh and Neeraj Dhote on Monday, and sought an urgent hearing, saying that the issue involved the rights of voters and the transparency in the process of enlisting voters and alleged breach of statutory provisions by the Election commission of India.The HC said it was not a petition filed as a public interest litigation (PIL) and hence saw no urgency. The HC listed the matter for a hearing on Oct 22.The petition seeks the constitution of an independent judicial committee headed by a retired high court judge to inquire into the alleged irregularities in the SIR process.The petition stated that Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi had raised objections on at least 14 occasions concerning various decisions and administrative processes of Election Commission.
