[QUOTE="Archived_Member16, post: 153342, member: 884"] [COLOR="Navy"][B][SIZE="5"]No re-polling, despite violations: Justice Brar [/SIZE][/B] [B]Tuesday, 20 September 2011 23:45 Monika | Chandigarh [/B] Even as the voters in the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) polls exercised their franchise amidst violence, booth-capturing and bogus voting, the Gurdwara Elections Commission on Tuesday ruled out any possibility of re-polling. Though the Commission has accepted that incidents of booth-capturing, fake voting and violence in couple of constituencies had taken place, it is still awaiting reports from the officials concerned before taking any step in that regard. “We have received reports from almost all the poll observers from all constituencies in Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Himachal Pradesh. There are reports of violations, booth-capturing etc in Muktsar district at four polling stations — two each in two of its constituencies,” Chief Commissioner Gurdwara Elections, retired Justice Harphool Singh Brar told The Pioneer. During polling on Sunday, the incidents of firing and booth capturing in Karaiwala village in Gidderbaha constituency, leaving one person injured, and booth capturing in Buttar Shrin village of Doda constituency were reported. Quoting the rules, Justice Brar made it clear that the Rule 48 of the Sikh Gurdwara Board Election Rules, 1959, clearly stated that the re-polling can be done when the winning margin is around 1,000 to 1,500. “In case the difference is above that, re-polling cannot be conducted,” he said, categorically adding that the polls would not be conducted anywhere as the reports received by the poll observers stated that the wining margin is far above. Rubbishing allegations that the Commission had kept mum despite reports regarding large-scale violations of election rules, the Chief Commissioner clarified that the Commission has taken serious view of all the incidents and the media reports. “After going through the media reports, television clippings, we have shot off a communication to the Punjab Commissioner Gurdwara Elections the very next day of the polls and asked him to submit an immediate report on the issue,” said Justice Brar, adding that no reply has yet been received from the State. In addition, the Commissioner has also been asked to take “appropriate or immediate action”, not only against the violators, candidates or parties, but also against the “delinquent officials who have gone against the directions, orders or instructions of the Gurdwara Elections Commission”, despite issuance of directions, instructions over the same to all the officers concerned including the presiding officers. Refusing to come out with a categorical stand on the “fairness” of the elections process, Justice Brar simply brushed aside the issue by saying, “We are taking stock of the situation.” “We have asked for the reports and will say anything only after receiving the same. I have done my best to ensure that election process go smooth and be conducted in a fair manner,” said Justice Brar. Also hinting at the allegations of his inclination towards the Shiromani Akali Dal and the Badals, Justice Brar said, “I am accountable to the Centre, and not in favour of anyone. I am giving day-to-day details to the Centre as it is the part of my duty.” Justice Brar has been facing allegations of being a “SAD man”, with his detractors claiming that he has taken favour from the Akalis for the appointment of his daughter, Anu Pal Brar, as an Assistant Advocate General of Punjab. The election results, he said, would be announced on Thursday, and the Commission will receive results from the district offices on the same day.
