Suprema Corte nega pedido para adiar Bihar eleições por Chhath Puja festival. Supreme Court denies request to postpone Bihar by-elections over Chhath Puja festival.

A Suprema Corte rejeitou um pedido do Partido Jan Suraaj de Prashant Kishor para adiar as eleições de Bihar marcadas para 13 de novembro, citando o festival Chhath Puja. The Supreme Court has rejected a plea by Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj Party to postpone Bihar's by-elections scheduled for November 13, citing the Chhath Puja festival. O partido argumentou que o momento reduziria a participação dos eleitores e era injusto em comparação com as eleições remarcadas em outros estados. The party argued the timing would reduce voter turnout and was unfair compared to rescheduled elections in other states. O tribunal, no entanto, decidiu que era tarde demais para mudar a data da eleição e observou que nenhum outro partido levantou objeções. The court, however, ruled it was too late to change the election date and noted that no other parties had raised objections.
