No reasons were given.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, another bench of the high court had recused from hearing the matter.<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court on July 28 had kept in abeyance the poll panel&#8217;s June 23 order disqualifying Mishra and had requested the Delhi High Court to expeditiously hear his appeal preferably within two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The high court had on July 16 dismissed Mishra&#8217;s plea for an interim stay of its single judge July 14 order, upholding the EC&#8217;s decision disqualifying him on the charges of paid news.<\/p>\n<p>Mishra had sought an interim stay as a last ditch attempt to vote in the July 17 presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>The single judge bench had on July 14 said that according to the provisions of the Representation of the People Act, the disqualification of a candidate has to be from the date of the order.<\/p>\n<p>The BJP leader had contended before the high court that the EC&#8217;s order disqualifying him pertained to an election of 2008 and that his subsequent tenure from 2013 would remain unaffected.<\/p>\n<p>The matter had reached the Delhi High Court after the apex court on July 12 transferred the matter to it to be decided expeditiously before the July 17 presidential poll.<\/p>\n<p>The EC&#8217;s order had held him guilty of filing wrong accounts of election expense relating to articles and advertorials in the media during the 2008 assembly polls.<\/p>\n<p>The poll panel&#8217;s order had come on a complaint by Congress leader Rajendra Bharti, who had contested the polls against Mishra in the 2008 assembly elections.<\/p>\n<p>Mishra had contested the EC&#8217;s decision on the grounds of delay in proceedings and that no evidence showed he had authorised paid news articles.<\/p>\n<p>While disqualifying Mishra from contesting elections for three years, the poll panel had used some strong words against paid news, calling it a &#8220;cancerous menace&#8221; that is assuming &#8220;alarming proportions&#8221; in the electoral landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Mishra, who won from Datia assembly constituency, was the minister for water resources and public relations and the chief spokesperson of the Shivraj Singh Chouhan government.<\/p>\n<p>The poll panel order had said that all the 42 news items that had appeared in five Hindi dailies were &#8220;extremely biased in favour of&#8221; Mishra.<\/p>\n<p>It had said that its findings had also strengthened the conclusion that he had &#8220;knowingly participated or took advantage of the expenditure on such advertisements&#8221; that had appeared as news in the publication.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211; PTI )<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another bench of the Delhi High Court today recused from hearing Madhya Pradesh minister Narottam Mishra&#8217;s plea against an Election Commission (EC) order disqualifying him on charges of paid news.
