Hearing the petition, the single judge bench comprising Justice B Veerappa adjourned the matter to Thursday. The court directed the state government and the Election Commission to submit details on the action being taken in this regard.

The bench also expressed its displeasure over the absence of advocates representing both the state government and the Election Commission during the hearing.
