Congress, CPM move EC seeking action against BJP for violation of poll code



Another complaint is registered against an unsolicited letter being circulated on social media purportedly from the PM himself. The Congress also demanded action against the BJP’s advertisements on the Delhi Metro with the tagline “Modi ki Guarantee” and removal of such advertisements.Meanwhile, in a letter to the EC on Wednesday, the state secretary of CPIM of Tamilnadu, K Balakrishnan, said students of a private school were instructed to be present during the PM’s roadshow in Vadavalli. He said involvement of children was in violation of the EC’s guidelines.The CPM’s complaint stated that students who participated in the election campaign were seen dressed as Hindu deities, donning saffron-coloured cloth strips bearing party symbols at various locations through the roadshow, performing on stages arranged by BJP workers.“Students present at the roadshow said that school authorities instructed them to gather at the Sai Baba Colony junction two hours before the event. In guidelines issued by your office on February 5, 2024, EC in unequivocal terms has conveyed zero tolerance towards use of children in election-related work or campaign activities,” said the letter.
