Madras High Court rejects election petition filed against the victory of DMK former Minister S. Regupathy from Thirumayam

Madras High Court rejects election petition filed against the victory of DMK former Minister S. Regupathy from Thirumayam The Madras High Court on Wednesday (September 30, 2026) rejected an election petition filed against the victory of Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) S. Regupathy from Thirumayam constituency by a margin of 1,492 votes. Ilanthiraiyan allowed an application filed by the MLA to reject the election petition filed by Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) candidate C. Chinthamani at the threshold without forcing him to undergo the long drawn process of trial without there being any cause of action. Wilson, representing the MLA, that all allegations levelled against his client in the election petition were vague, scandalous, and vexatious besides having been made with the sole intention to defame and embarrass the legislator. Regupathy, also a former Minister in the DMK Cabinet, on the ground that the counting of votes cast in as many as 18 polling booths were not counted properly and that her plea for recounting of those votes was not accepted by the Returning Officer. However, the judge held that the request was an afterthought since neither the election petitioner nor her counting agent had raised any objection during the counting of each round of votes but had raised the request for recounting only after knowing the margin of victory. “A recount cannot be done as a matter of routine or course.
