Popular Telugu actor Manchu Vishnu has moved the Supreme Court seeking to cancel a case registered against him for allegedly contravening the Model Code of Conduct during the 2019 general polls. The case was filed against him for violating the election code, although the details of the violation are not publicly known. Manchu Vishnu has petitioned the Supreme Court to quash the charges against him, and the case is now scheduled for a hearing on July 15, 2025.
A bench led by Justice B.V. Nagarathna heard the petition and issued notices to the respondents in the case. The court's decision to issue notices indicates that it will scrutinize the case information, evidence available, and feedback from the respondents during the upcoming hearing. The Supreme Court's involvement in the case has generated significant interest, given that it pertains to events that occurred several years ago.
The case against Manchu Vishnu has been ongoing since the 2019 general elections, and the actor's decision to approach the Supreme Court highlights his determination to clear his name. The outcome of the case will depend on the court's evaluation of the evidence and arguments presented by both sides.
The hearing on July 15, 2025, will likely provide more clarity on the case's trajectory and the court's stance on the matter. With the Supreme Court's involvement, the case is expected to reach a conclusive resolution, bringing an end to the prolonged legal proceedings.
