Education Minister Reddy was campaigning using Government resources
"We make it abundantly clear these disgruntled members led by the Past President Dorsami Naidu, (who lost the election in year 2011), Area Vice President North Western (TISI) Parveen Kumar Bala, and Area Vice President Southern (TISI) Raja Kumaran, have no locus standi or legal basis and status to call their meeting an Annual General Meeting of TISI Sangam. These individuals through their servants and agents and support[er]s attempted to break into the Nadi Sangam College through bolt cutters & grinder and attempted to break in only to be foiled by the police. Hooliganism and abuse of the rule of law has no place in a civilized society. And TISI Sangam, which has always strictly adhered to the rule of law, is no exception. If they can condone illegality, hooliganism and abuse of the rule of law, then how can they be trusted to run Sangam?" -

SADASIVAN NAICKER The Annual General Meeting of the Then India Sanmarga Ikya Sangam (TISI Sangam) scheduled for 10am today at the Sangam Sadhu Kuppuswamy Memorial College in Nadi was cancelled late Saturday afternoon after police issued an Order NOT to hold the AGM following serious threats at the Then India Valibar Sangam (TIV) meeting yesterday.
Despite the cancellation of the meeting by the official TISI National Board, a very few limited disgruntled members of Sangam who incited tension and hooliganism through threats of harm at the TIV meeting called their supporters for a unsanctioned meeting around 11.30 am at the Nadi Special Education School today.
We make it abundantly clear these disgruntled members led by the Past President Dorsami Naidu, (who lost the election in year 2011), Area Vice President North Western (TISI) Parveen Kumar Bala, and Area Vice President Southern (TISI) Raja Kumaran, have no locus standi or legal basis and status to call their meeting an Annual General Meeting of TISI Sangam.
These individuals through their servants and agents and support[er]s attempted to break into the Nadi Sangam College through bolt cutters & grinder and attempted to break in only to be foiled by the police.
Hooliganism and abuse of the rule of law has no place in a civilized society. And TISI Sangam, which has always strictly adhered to the rule of law, is no exception.
If they can condone illegality, hooliganism and abuse of the rule of law, then how can they be trusted to run Sangam?
Today’s so-called unsanctioned meeting is in defiance of Sangam’s constitution and has no legal basis. It is being conducted without the presence of the current official office bearers who preside over such a meeting. Its attendance is also questionable as the membership status of those in the meeting cannot be determined by the Sangam’s Head Office and the Returning Officer.
We wish to advice our members that all current office bearers continue in office. A National Council of Management meeting will be called on later date for a redress of what has transpired.
Any election of office bearers by today’s bogus purported AGM/Meeting is unlawful illegal and boarders [borders] on criminality.

Civil Case No. HBC 245 of 2014
Steven Pradeep Singh, Fiji Labour Party vs EC, Supervisor of Elections and Attorney General of Fiji and Minister of Elections
On 25 August 2014 Mr. Singh and the Fiji Labour Party filed a Notice of Originating Motion against EC, SoE and AG as a result of his name not being included in the Candidates List draw. The Court heard on 18 August 2014 the Fiji Labour Party filed its candidate nomination with the FEO and on the same date the SoE informed Fiji Labour Party that Mr. Singh’s nomination was rejected. On 19 August 2014 the Fiji Labour Party appealed to the EC on behalf of the rejected candidates which included Mr. Singh. On 22 August 2014 EC allowed the appeal in respect to Mr. Singh and directed SoE to include Mr. Singh’s name in the Candidates List. The SoE refused to follow the directive of the EC and drew the Candidates List without Mr. Singh’s name. The Court in delivering its judgment confirmed that it does not have the jurisdiction to deal with this case as it does not determine the eligibility or ineligibility of Mr. Singh to be a candidate in the 2014 General Election. It is not the function of the Court to do so and therefore the case was dismissed and struck out in its entirety. Further, Mr Singh and the Fiji Labour Party were ordered to pay the sum of $3,000.00 to the Supervisor of Elections and Attorney General of Fiji and Minister of Elections.
