The Delhi High Court on Thursday dismissed an appeal filed by Samata Party challenging a single judge order which last month rejected its plea against allotment of flaming torch symbol to Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena by Election Commission of India for the Andheri East bypoll in Maharashtra. In the appeal filed through Advocate Kamlesh Kumar Mishra, Samata Party said that the single judge dismissed its plea on the very first date of hearing, without issuing notice to the ECI, Shiv Sena and Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. "Because since its status as a de recognised party, Samata party continuously trying to get its recognition back by contesting in various State Assemblies Elections with the same Symbol i.e Flaming Torch and if the same is taken away from the party without even giving the opportunity to defend its symbol the struggle of its members will go in vein," the plea said.
