The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed Congress leader Meenakshi Natarajan’s plea challenging rejection of her nomination papers for the Rajya Sabha election from Madhya Pradesh.A Bench comprising Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Atul S Chandurkar, however, said it has not observed anything on the merits of the case.The Bench said she was free to file an election petition in the Madhya Pradesh High Court.All three BJP candidates from the state were declared elected unopposed on Thursday.“However erroneous the decision may be, once a nomination is rejected, the remedy ordinarily lies elsewhere. Is there any judgment of this Court where we have interfered at that stage?” the Bench asked senior counsel AM Singhvi who represented Natrajan.
