Which of the following High Court passed a judgement on 12 June 1975 declaring the election of Indira Gandhi to the Lok Sabha invalid?

Allahabad High Court

The correct answer is option (2) - Allahabad High Court

On 12 June 1975, Justice Jagmohan Lal Sinha of the Allahabad High Court passed a judgment declaring Indira Gandhi’s election to the Lok Sabha invalid. This order came on an election petition filed by Raj Narain, a socialist leader and a candidate who had contested against her in 1971. The petition, challenged the election of Indira Gandhi on the ground that she had used the services of government servants in her election campaign. The judgment of the High Court meant that legally she was no more an MP and therefore, could not remain the Prime Minister unless she was once again elected as an MP within six months. On June 24, the Supreme Court granted her a partial stay on the High Court order - till her appeal was decided, she could remain an MP MP but could not take part in the proceedings of the Lok Sabha.
