In the wake of complaints by BJP and Congress against one another in the ongoing assembly elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Saturday sent separate letters to BJP President JP Nadda and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, to sought their respective responses on the complaint of the other.
The Election Commission also exchanged the complaints between the two parties while seeking their responses by 1 pm on Monday.
The poll panel reminded the party presidents of an earlier advisory issued to them dated May 22, 2024 during Lok Sabha Elections, which asked them to keep a check on campaigners and leaders so that public decorum is not flouted and Model Code of Conduct (MCC) is followed in letter and spirit during election campaigning.
