Maharashtra Speaker survives legal scrutiny, public glare

IndiaTimes Thursday, 11 January 2024
Rahul Narwekar, the youngest Speaker in the history of the state assembly, has faced petitions for disqualification of Shiv Sena MLAs. Despite SC's displeasure, he has survived scrutiny by sticking to the given deadline. His handling of the case and conduct as Speaker has earned him praise within the BJP. Narwekar, seen as someone with legal acumen, may receive a Lok Sabha ticket. However, his electoral prospects may be affected by sympathy for Sena and criticism of his role.

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~
