The Supreme Court today ruled that candidates registered as voters in multiple constituencies are barred from contesting elections. Dismissing the Uttarakhand SEC's appeal, the apex court upheld the High Court's stay on a circular that permitted such candidates in panchayat polls, deeming it contrary to statutory provisions.
