Before counting of votes began, one party raised objections about two votes and pleaded to Election Officer to disqualify the two votes.
Other side opposed that when votes were being dropped, no objection was raised. Thereafter votes were certified as in order. So now at the time of counting votes, such objections cannot be raised.
Law: When there is no Rule about when an objection can be raised, then the objection has to be taken within reasonable time.
Here, objection is raised before counting of votes begun. So it is raised within reasonable time. No prejudice is caused. So objection is validly raised within reasonable time.
