The Supreme Court on Tuesday said that the option of none of the above (NOTA) cannot be permitted in Rajya Sabha elections and stated that it should be applied in direct polls only. The Election Commission has notified that NOTA option will be made available in the ballot papers for Rajya Sabha polls. However, a SC bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra and justices AM Khanwilkar and D Y Chandrachud set aside the poll panel's notofication. The apex court had questioned the EC's notification and said that NOTA was meant to be exercised by individual voters in direct polls.
