Yes, an SLP (Special Leave Petition) can be filed in the Supreme Court if the Returning Officer's decision is arbitrary. The petition will challenge the rejection of the independent candidate's candidature. Consult a lawyer to prepare the petition, providing evidence of the arbitrary action and legal grounds to support the appeal. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
