The Madras High Court dismissed a writ petition aiming to alter the schedule for the Tamil Nadu Lok Sabha elections. The petitioner sought an earlier date for counting votes, contending against the 45-day gap between polling and counting. However, the court, led by Chief Justice Sanjay V. Gangapurwala and Justice D. Bharatha Chakravarthy, upheld the Election Commission’s decision, stating it couldn’t intervene in such matters.
