In an election, the concerned candidate may file a complaint in the relevant court within fifteen days from the date of creation of the reason for the annulment of the counting of votes on the basis of the following:-
(a) that the other candidate has won by illegally obtaining more votes, although he has obtained more votes,
(b) Failing to cancel the voidable ballot paper or not validating the voidable ballot paper according to the law,
(c) Counting votes without doing so in accordance with the law.
(2) If the complaint given in accordance with sub-section (1) is proved, the court may cancel the counting of votes and repeat the counting of votes.
(3) During the counting of votes according to sub-section (2), the votes received by all the candidates of the respective constituencies shall be counted.
(4) Counting of votes according to sub-section (2) shall be done in the presence of the candidate or his representative. However, due to the fact that no candidate or his representative is present, the counting of votes will not be hindered if the vote counting has been duly informed.
(5) If during the counting of votes according to sub-section (2) it is proved that the complaining candidate or any other candidate has received more votes and because of that the election result is different, the election result of the elected candidate will be invalidated and the court will decide that the candidate who received more votes was elected according to the law.
