Emailed WB Panchayat poll nominations won't be accepted: SC
Setting aside the Calcutta High Court order, the Supreme Court on Thursday said the West Bengal Election Commission (WBEC) will not accept nominations for Panchayat polls that have been filed through email. It was hearing WBEC's plea challenging the HC order allowing filing of nominations via email. SC also ordered the WBEC to not declare nearly 17,000 unopposed candidates, winners.
