Punjab Elections

The Supreme Court on Tuesday set aside the stay imposed by the Punjab and Haryana High Court on holding of elections to the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI).

The Supreme Court ruled that the Governor cannot indefinitely delay or withhold assent to a Bill, emphasising that such actions undermine the legislative process and the supremacy of the elected representatives.

Two persons, including a Punjab police constable, deployed for poll duty in Madhya Pradesh died on Thursday and one woman had to be hospitalised after she collapsed following an asthma attack, officials said.

Some "soul searching" is needed on both sides, remarked the Supreme Court on Monday over several states accusing Governors of delaying action on bills cleared by the assemblies.

Mr Narang was elected from the Abohar Assembly seat after defeating Congress candidate Sunil Jakhar during the state 2017 elections.

The development came days after UWW, the world governing body for wrestling, suspended the WFI for not conducting its elections on time.
