Court Orders Exchange of Election Documents in Bhawanipur Case

During the hearing of Mamata Banerjee's election petition, Justice Gaurang Kant instructed both sides to provide each other with copies of all essential documents related to the Bhawanipur vote within four weeks. The order also requires each party to file an affidavit confirming the exchange. The Registrar General was tasked with overseeing the proper handover of electronic voting machine logs and other election records, which were previously secured as per an earlier court directive. The next hearing will take place after a six‑week interval, allowing time for the parties to comply with the document‑exchange mandate.
