New Delhi : Before announcing the Lok Sabha elections 2024, the Election Commission has asked all the political parties to maintain decorum and restraint during the campaign. The Election Commission has also warned of taking strict action against those who violate the Model Code of Conduct. The Commission warned all political parties and state governments that they cannot make any such announcement during their election campaign in their own or any neighboring state. In which there are promises to attract voters. This would be considered as bribing the voters to vote.
If any state government did this then it would be considered a violation of the code of conduct. Along with this, the Commission has also asked all the political parties, leaders and candidates to be declared for the elections to maintain decorum and restraint during public campaigning. During speeches, do not say anything that incites public sentiments. Publicity in any way should not create communal tension.
Any religious places of all religions including temples, mosques, churches and gurudwaras cannot be used for election campaigning. Star campaigners have also been asked to maintain decorum during their campaign. Star campaigners and leaders of political parties have been accused of violating the Model Code of Conduct in the last elections. The Commission has the list of all of them. In such a situation, he should not do any such work again. Which violates the code.
