- Vote carrying double stamps is invalid and thus the conclusion that there were no votes with double stamps at the time of counting by the Presiding Officer flows from the evidence on the record — Such a finding of a Tribunal of exclusive jurisdiction is sacrosanct and cannot be set aside in exercise of writ jurisdiction. Ajaib Khan v. Muzaffar Hussain & others 1995 SCR 213 (A)
- valid ballot paper is counted in favour of a candidate only if there is a mark against his name and symbol — If there are stamps against names of two candidates such a vote cannot be counted in favour of any candidate and it is to be treated an invalid vote. Ajaib Khan v. Muzaffar Hussain & others 1995 SCR 213 (B)
