HC notice to Delimitation Commission on Mhow constituency

Jabalpur, Nov 23 (UNI) The Madhya Pradesh High Court has issued a notice, returnable in four weeks, to the Delimitation Commission on a petition challenging inclusion of Indore's Mhow segment in Dhar Lok Sabha constituency.

A division bench of Chief Justice A K Patnaik and Justice Ajit Singh issued the notice yesterday on a petition filed by Mhow Residents Association.

Petitioner's counsel Anand Mohan Mathur said the Commission had unilaterally decided to include Mhow in Dhar constituency without ascertaining the views of Mhow residents. It is unconstitutional, he added.
