The Selangor government's appeal against the Election Commission (EC) over the present redelineation was dismissed by the Court of Appeal today.
A three-member bench led by Justice Ahmadi Asnawi ruled that the state government has the legal standing to initiate the judicial review, and they were right in questioning the process of redelineation that the EC should use the principal and supplementary electoral roll when considering the redelineation, and not only rely on the principal electoral roll.
Under the Thirtheenth Schedule of the Federal Constitution, the state government, the local council or local authorities and a body of 100 or more persons can object to proposed EC recommendations that affect their constituencies.
