Chandigarh mayoral poll: AAP MP hails SC's order to preserve ballots, video of proceedings

) AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sandeep Pathak on Monday welcomed the Supreme Court's observations on the Chandigarh mayoral polls, saying it is because of such decisions that people's "hopes are pinned on the legal system".

He also sought that the criminal liability and culpability should be fixed for the events that unfolded on the day of the elections.

Pathak's statement came hours after the apex court ordered that the Chandigarh mayoral poll ballots and the video of the electoral proceedings be preserved.

Taking note of a plea of an Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) councillor alleging wrongdoing in the polls, the court issued notices to the Chandigarh authorities, including the civic body, calling the incident a "mockery of democracy".

Speaking to PTI Videos, Pathak said the SC's decision is "quite encouraging".
