INDIA bloc seat sharing: Mamata Banerjee keen to test Bengal waters 'alone', UBT Sena not willing to 'compromise'

IndiaTimes Friday, 29 December 2023
The opposition's INDIA bloc faces uncertainty as partners hint at going alone in the Lok Sabha elections. Shiv Sena (UBT) asserts its position as the biggest party in Maharashtra and refuses to compromise on seat-sharing. Mamata Banerjee expresses her desire for the TMC to fight alone in Bengal against the BJP. However, the INDIA alliance will contest on all seats across the country. Congress approaches seat-sharing talks with an open mind, taking into consideration the different challenges in each state.

LS Polls 2024: Election Commission asks AAP to modify its Lok Sabha election campaign song| Oneindia

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. #LSPolls2024 #ElectionCommission #AAP #CampaignSong #ArvindKejriwal #Arrest #ECGuidelines #ModelCodeOfConduct #PoliticalCampaign #SongModification ~PR.152~ED.101~GR.125~HT.96~
