Electoral bonds: Plea seeks review of SC order rejecting petitions for seizure of money
The HinduA petition filed in the Supreme Court on Wednesday sought a review of its order passed in August 2024 dismissing pleas for confiscation of ₹16,518 crore received by political parties under the 2018 electoral bonds scheme. The review plea, filed through advocate Jayesh K. Unnikrishnan and settled by senior advocate Vijay Hansaria, said on February 15, 2024 that the top court held in another case — Association for Democratic Reforms vs. Union of India — that the electoral bonds are unconstitutional for violating Article 19 of the Constitution. The verdict in the ADR case, said the plea, rendered the scheme void since inception and therefore the subsequent pleas seeking confiscation of the amount collected by political parties could not have been dismissed. The plea said the previous Bench's reliance on the existence of parliamentary legislation permitting electoral bonds to dismiss the writ petition constituted an "apparent error on the face of the record".
