Is mobile e-voting in Bihar municipal elections legally valid?

Is the recently conducted municipal election in Bihar through mobile e-voting legally permitted by the Constitution or the Representation of the People Act, 1951? If not, can this election be challenged in court through a Public Interest Litigation (PIL)?

Mobile e-voting for municipal elections is not clearly allowed under current laws or the Constitution. If it was done without proper legal backing, the election can be challenged in court through a PIL. A High Court can then decide if the method was valid or if re-elections are needed.
