S B LASKAR, MR. H A LASKAR,MS D DUTTA,MS. S KHATUN Advocate for the Respondent : SC, ECI, GA, ASSAM Page No.# 23/24 BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR MEDHI ORDER 05.08.2026 Heard Shri H. A. Laskar, learned counsel for the petitioner. Also heard Ms. S. Katakey, learned Standing Counsel, Election Commission of India and Shri S. R. Baruah, learned State Counsel. The petitioners, who are 124 in nos. have projected that they are duly enrolled voters under various polling stations under the 125 Patharkandi Legislative Assembly Constituency, in the district Sribhumi, Assam and their names were included in the final Electoral Rolls published on 10.02.2026. However, their names were not reflected in the official voters service portal/electoral database. The petitioners claimed to have submitted separate representations in this regard which have not been taken into consideration. On the other hand, Ms. Katakey, the learned Standing Counsel has submitted that the Representation of Peoples Act, 1950 provides for preferring an appeal and in this regard, she has pressed into service Section 24 of the said Act. Section 24 reads as follows: 24. Appeals.— An appeal shall lie within such time and in such manner as may be prescribed.— (a) to the magistrate or additional district magistrate or executive magistrate or district collector or an officer of equivalent rank, from any order of the electoral registration officer under section 22 or section 23 (b) to the chief electoral officer, from any order of the district magistrate or the Page No.# 24/24 additional district magistrate under clause (a). The learned Standing Counsel, ECI has also submitted that similar matters have been disposed of by directing the parties to prefer appeal. It is seen that in the forum provided by the statute in the form of an appeal, there is a prescription for presenting an appeal as the same would require a determination on facts. This Court is of the view that the remedy provided in the statute is an efficacious alternative remedy in which the grievance of the petitioners can be taken into consideration and resolved in accordance with law. In view of the above, the writ petition is closed by giving liberty to the petitioners to prefer the appeal under the provision of law as mentioned above and in accordance with law. It is needless to state that if such appeal is preferred in the prescribed manner, the same would be considered and disposed of expeditiously and in accordance with law. It is further made clear that as deletion of the names, as such has not been communicated, the appellate authority shall not insist on the aspect that the appeal has not been preferred within the time and considered the same on merits. The prescription of time as mentioned in the statute be maintained by the appellate authority from the date when the appeals are filed. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
