Bombay high court
MUMBAI: An appeal bench of Bombay high court on Friday directed Bombay Parsee Punchayet (BPP) to allow a Parsee woman, Zuleika Homavazir, to contest its forthcoming polls as her proposer Rustom Jeejeebhoy, who belongs to an illustrious family, is still on its voters list.
The HC bench of Justices Shahrukh Kathawalla and Vinay Joshi said that until the name of Jeejeebhoy appears on the general register and is not struck off, Homavazir was fully justified in submitting her nomination form proposed by him on January 29 and “the trustees have incorrectly rejected” it. The election is for filling up two vacancies on the board of trustees of the BPP.
