Congress alleges “Possession of PM Modi on his way to cast his vote violates ECI norms

Further he stated that ‘Model Code of Conduct’ does not permit roadshows of processions on the polling day. The PM conducting a road show on his way to cast his vote was a breach against the rules as it influenced the voters.

The procession was broadcasted on all news channels which is not permissible under the rules. Congress alleged that it approached the Election Commission of India (ECI) with the complaint but it is yet to get any response.

The Grand Old Party also requested the Election Commission of India (ECI) to take action against the TV Channels broadcasting PM Modis ‘ostentatious’ display of power.
