The plea of Yogendra Yadav headed Swaraj India which challenges the Election commission decision to not give the common symbol to contest in the municipal corporation's elections today has been rejected by Delhi High court.

Sumit Pushkarna, the advocate who appeared for the Delhi state election commission submitted in the court that they don’t have the right to allot symbols.

Swaraj India, a party led by Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan, approached the Delhi High court earlier last week challenging the state election commission's denial to their plea for a common symbol in the upcoming civic polls.
