As per the petitioner, he had lodged several complaints against party symbols resembling or identical to parts of the human body to ensure free and fair elections. He moved the Court after the ECI did not take action.
The plea, filed through advocate Omprakash Parihar, called upon the Supreme Court to decide whether ECI can allot human body parts as symbols and whether such allotment violates Article 324 of the Constitution of India, the Representation of the People Act, General Clauses Act and Conduct of Election Rules.
