SUDHIR SINGH S/O VISHWANATH SINGH R/O WALLIPUR, P.S.- PIPARIA, DISTT.- LAKHISARAI ----------- 3. 15.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The number of voters on the electoral rolls, the number of persons who caste their votes, what were the entries made in the presiding officers diary, what alleged errors if any were made in recording entries with regard to the number of votes polled and that which emerged from the ballot box etc. are matters to be more appropriately considered in an election petition where evidence both oral and documentary shall be led and cross-examined. The Court does not find it possible and does not consider it the jurisdiction of the writ Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India to usurp the 2 jurisdiction of the election tribunal. If so advised, the petitioner may pursue his remedies in an election petition. The application stands disposed in the aforesaid terms. P. Kumar ( Navin Sinha, J.)
