Madhya Pradesh High Court:<\/span> In an election petition filed by Congress candidate PC Sharma, challenging the election of BJP MLA Bhagwandas Sabnani from the South-West seat of Bhopal, a single-judge bench comprising of Vishal Dhagat, J., issued notice to respondent and directed to submit reply to the allegations raised in the petition.<\/p>\n

The Court noted that the petitioner alleged irregularities in the election process, specifically regarding the functioning of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs).
