Issues: Whether the operation of the election judgment under appeal should be stayed pending appeal, whether the statutory disqualification consequent upon the finding of corrupt practice should remain suspended during the stay, and whether the appellant's rights as Member of Parliament and as Prime Minister should be affected by the stay conditions.
Analysis: The Court held that in election appeals the usual practice was to grant stay subject to conditions, and that the effect of staying the judgment was to suspend the impugned finding and the consequential disqualification under Section 8A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951. The appellant would therefore remain a member for all purposes except the specific restrictions imposed by the stay order. The Court further held that the stay conditions governing membership did not curtail the appellant's independent constitutional and statutory rights as Prime Minister or Minister to speak in Parliament and perform ministerial functions, and that there was no legal embargo on continuing in that office during the pendency of the appeal.
Conclusion: The stay application was granted in a conditional form. The judgment under appeal and the resulting disqualification stood suspended during the pendency of the appeal, subject to the specified restrictions on participation, voting, and remuneration as a Lok Sabha Member.
