ECI reports seven-fold rise in seized election freebies compared to 2018
Monday, 20 November 2023 The Election Commission of India has reported a seven-fold increase in the value of seizures of cash, liquor, drugs, and other potential inducements in the five poll-going states, reaching Rs 1760 crore. Rajasthan and Telangana account for nearly three-fourths of the total value of seizures, with Telangana leading the way with seizures worth Rs 659 crore. The figures are expected to increase further as polling in these states is yet to take place. The Election Commission attributes the increase in seizures to its commitment to ensuring free and fair elections.
On April 28, the Election Commission of India (ECI) directed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to revise the content of its Lok Sabha campaign song to adhere to the Advertising Codes outlined in the Cable Television Network Rules, 1994, and ECI guidelines. The AAP was requested to make necessary modifications to the song and resubmit it for certification. “The phrase “jail ke jawaab me hum vote denge” showing an aggressive mob holding the photo of Arvind Kejriwal showing him behind bars, casts aspersions on the Judiciary. Further, the said phrase appears several times in the advertisement which contravenes the provisions of ECI Guidelines and Rule 6(1(g) of Programme and Advertising Codes prescribed under the Cable Television Network Rules, 1994” (DISPLAY) said ECI.
