Article 63 (Disqualifications)

Article 63 outlines situations where individuals become disqualified from contesting elections. It includes conditions such as being of unsound mind, holding certain positions like government officers, or having been convicted of serious crimes, especially if sentenced to more than two years. Additionally, those who have engaged in corrupt practices, have been disqualified by law, or are disqualified under specific legal provisions are also barred from standing as candidates. Essentially, it ensures that election candidates meet standards of integrity and legal qualification, maintaining the fairness and credibility of the electoral process.
