Jalandhar, February Jasvir Singh Gill, former NRI and one of the contenders for the post of president of NRI Sabha, elections for which were held yesterday, threatened to move the High Court if fresh polls were held within a week.

Talking to the mediapersons here today, Gill alleged that the district administration had committed large-scale irregularities during election and it should declare these elections as null and void.

He alleged that about 350 NRI delegates supporting his candidature were not allowed to enter the election venue, as majority of them were not issued mandatory entry cards.

He alleged that many were asked to go back from the main gate after 12:30 pm and later when they were allowed to enter, the Sabha members had decided about electing president unanimously. He added that even on his request, his supporters were not allowed to enter the venue.
