Ladakh Council polls: NC entitled to plough symbol, says SC
The Supreme Court has allowed the National Conference to contest the upcoming elections in Kargil on its reserved party symbol and directed a fresh poll notification to be issued within a week. The court criticized the Ladakh administration for not allotting the symbol despite a favorable order from the high court. The NC was denied permission to contest on its reserved symbol as it is not a recognized state party in Ladakh. The court imposed a cost of ₹1 lakh on the Ladakh administration and stated that elections should be independent and free from extraneous influence.
