The Chartered Accountants (Election to the Council) Rules, 2006
Rule 31. Grounds for declaring ballot papers invalid.
A ballot paper shall be invalid:-
(a) if a voter signs his name or writes any word or figure upon it or makes any mark including a tick (✓) / cross (x), not being a mark of `X’ put under clause (c) of sub-rule (2) of rule 20, upon it by which the ballot paper becomes recognisable or by which the voter can be identified; or
(b) if it is not printed by or under the authority of the Council or it is different in any manner from the ballot papers printed under rule 25; or
(c) if number 1 (in Arabic numerals) is not marked on it; or
(d) if number 1 (in Arabic numerals) is set opposite the name of more than one candidate; or
(e) if number 1 (in Arabic numerals) and some other numbers are put opposite the name of the same candidate; or
(f) if it is unmarked or the marks made are void or cannot be unambiguously determined; or
(g) if it is so damaged or mutilated that its identity as a genuine ballot paper cannot be established.
[Arabic numerals are the ten digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. These are by far the most commonly used symbols to write decimal numbers. The term often implies a decimal number, in particular when contrasted with Roman numerals. Decimal however was developed long before the Arabic numerals, using other symbols]
