One can appeal for an election petition in high court and it will take the decision.

As far as my knowledge goes the power to decide an election petition is vested with Supreme Court. There have been instance of the Apex Court giving verdict related to electoral issues like when PA Sangama raised the matter that the presidential elections were rigged.

The SC was the one which called the shots and likewise when eminent lawyer Prashant Bhushan had filed a petition for electoral reforms to bring in NOTA in EVMS in that case too supreme court gave the verdict.

But some times it is of course needed.
