India: 'Pay up for challenging MPs' election', The Times of India (2010)

This article reports on the Bombay high court's decision to dismiss the petitions challenging the elections of found Mumbai MPs, and charge all costs to the petitioners. The petitions claimed that the MPs were elected "using religion'' and appease a minority community. The Representation of People Act prohibits seeking votes in the name of caste or religion. However, none of the four MPs belonged to the minority community.
