What is of the essence of the provision contained in section 117 is that the petitioner should furnish security for the costs of the petition, and should enclose along with the petition a Government Treasury receipt showing that a deposit of one thousand rupees has been made by him either in a Government Treasury or in the Reserve Bank of India, is at the disposal of the Election Commission to be utilised by it in the manner authorised by law and is under its control and payable on a proper application being made in that behalf to the Election Commission or to any person duly authorised by it to receive the same, be he the Secretary to the Election Commission or any one else." The same question was dealt with in Chandrika Prasad Tripathi vs Siv Prasad Chanpuria & Ors.(1) In that case, security deposit of Rs. 1000/ had been made, but not, in terms, in the name of the Secretary 652 to the Election Commission; instead, the deposit was made "refundable by order of the Election Commission of India, New Delhi".
