Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

The correct options are
A The elections were rigged by some miscreants and were being reconducted.
B The results were declared null and void by the court of law.
C The elections were held at different levels - local and national.

The possible reasons to explain Ramesh voting in two elections within a span of 3 months could be due to several reasons. There may have been ill practices used for conducting elecions, leading to another election being conducted. In such events, the results can be declared null and void by the courts and elections would be held again. Another reason could be that the elections were held at different levels - at local and national level.
