Order
The 3rd September, 2022
No. SEC/2E-II/2022/2080.— Whereas, Smt. Kavita had contested election from Ward No. 19, Zila Parishad Bhiwani held on 17.01.2016. She was disqualified by the State Election Commission vide order dated 12.12.2019 due to non submission of election expenditure statement within the prescribed time limit.
2. Whereas, Smt. Kavita has filed a representation dated 18.08.2022 against the disqualifying order dated 12.12.2019. She has submitted that she had contested the election of Member Zila Parishad, Bhiwani (now Charkhi Dadri) Ward No.19 and lost the election. She could not submit her election expenditure statement within the prescribed time due to lack of knowledge, she has further stated that after election she got pregnant and for better medical facilities, her family shifted to District Rohtak. She gave birth to a male child on 03.09.2017. Now she has submitted her election expenditure statement in original. She prayed for withdrawal of disqualification order dated 12.12.2019.
3. I have examined the expenditure statement filed by Smt. Kavita which is within the expenditure limit prescribed by the State Election Commission, Haryana vide its order No. SEC/2E-II/2015/5782 dated 03.06.2015. So far as filing the election expenditure beyond prescribed time limit, I have gone through her representation and office record carefully. I am convinced about the reason given by her in submitting her election expenditure statement late. Therefore, taking a lenient view in the matter, I order to remove her disqualification and also withdraw her name from the list of disqualified candidates issued vide order dated 12.12.2019.
4. I further direct that a copy of this order be sent to the candidate concerned through Deputy Commissioner- cum-District Election Officer (P) Bhiwani.
5. I further direct that a copy of this order may also be hosted on website of the State Election Commission www.secharyana.gov.in.
