Supreme Court on Bihar Elections
The Supreme Court has given its judgment - The dissolution of the Bihar Assembly was unconstitutional but polls can proceed as they are on. This has put the Supreme Court itself under a question mark. On the one hand it says the dissolution in Bihar was unconstitutional and on the other while it still has a chance to save perhaps hundreds of lives and millions of rupees, it gives a lame excuse of the poll process having started. Nominations are yet to be filed , deployment of troops yet to made, candidates holding on for a final pronouncement have not yet gone full blast on campaign and the Supreme court says the process has started and cannot be stopped.
