Since the nomination paper filed by Santhosh for the vice president’s post was improper, it was rejected and hence the post remained vacant, said Election Officer Arundhathi.
Seethamma belongs to Scheduled Tribe. The vice president’s post is reserved for Backward Class (B); but Santhosh had produced a caste certificate where it was mentioned that he belongs to BC(A). Hence, his paper has been rejected.
