The Kerala High Court on Tuesday (November 5) dismissed a petition filed by C V John challenging the result of 2021 Kerala Legislative Assembly election where Mani C. Kappan who had contested under United Democratic Front was declared as the returning candidate.

C. V. John had contested from the same constituency–Pala, as an independent candidate.

The judgment was delivered by a single judge bench of Justice C. Jayachandran. The election result was challenged on the ground that Kappan spent more money for their campaign than permitted under Representation of People Act.

A detailed copy of the judgment is awaited.
