In Brief
The Supreme Court addressed a three-year-old election petition pending before an Election Tribunal. After the election petitioner expressed willingness to present himself for examination and cross-examination, the Court directed the Election Tribunal to dispose of the petition within three months from the next date of posting. The Court emphasized judicial efficiency without deciding the merits, keeping all legal questions open for resolution on the basis of the evidence.
