56A. 1 [Counting of votes].— (1) The ballot papers taken out of each ballot box shall be arranged in convenient bundles and scrutinised. 115 (2) The returning officer shall reject a ballot paper— (a) if it bears any mark or writing by which the elector can be identified; or (b) if it is a spurious ballot paper; or or (c) if it is so damaged or mutilated that its identity as a genuine ballot paper cannot be established; (d) if it bears a serial number, or is of design, different from the serial numbers or, as the case may be, design, of the ballot papers authorised for use at the particular polling station; or (e) if it does not bear 2 [both the mark and the signature] which it should have borne under the provisions of sub-rule (1) of rule 38: Provided that where the returning officer is satisfied that any such defect as is mentioned in clause (d) or clause (e) has been caused by any mistake or failure on the part of a presiding officer or polling officer, the ballot paper shall not be rejected merely on the ground of such defect. (3) Before rejecting any ballot paper under sub-rule (2), the returning officer shall allow the counting agents present a reasonable opportunity to inspect the ballot paper but shall not allow them to handle it or any other ballot paper. (4) The returning officer shall record on every ballot paper which he rejects the letter 'R' and the grounds of rejection in abbreviated form either in his own hand or by means of a rubber stamp. (5) All ballot papers taken out of any one ballot box and rejected under this rule shall be made into a separate bundle. 3 [(6) Every ballot paper which is not rejected under this rule shall be counted as one valid vote: Provided that no cover containing tendered ballot papers shall be opened and no such ballot paper shall be counted.] 2 [(7) After the counting of all ballot papers contained in all the ballot boxes used at a polling station has been completed,— (a) the counting supervisor shall fill in and sign Part II—Result of Counting in 4 [Form 16 which shall also be signed by the returning officer; and (b) the returning officer shall make the entries in a result sheet in Form 20 and announce the particulars.] 5 [57A. Sealing of used ballot papers.—(1) The valid ballot papers found in each ballot box, shall thereafter be bundled together and kept along with the bundle of rejected ballot papers, if any found in that box in a separate packet which shall be sealed with the seals of the returning officer and of such of the candidates, their election agents or counting agents as may desire to affix their seals thereon and on the packet so sealed there shall be recorded the following particulars, namely:— __________________________________________________________________________________________ 1. Subs. by Notifn. No. S.O. 3662, dated the 12th October, 1964, for the former marginal heading. 2. Subs. by Notifn. No. S.O. 4542, dated the 20th December, 1968 (w.e.f 1-1-1969). 3. Ins. by Notifn.
