IndiaTimes Wednesday, 20 March 2024
The Centre has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court defending the appointment of two election commissioners under the chief election commissioner and Other election commissioners Act, 2023. It argues that the Act safeguards the Election Commission's constitutional integrity and fosters democratic mechanisms. Excluding the Chief Justice of India from the selection panel is upheld, citing independence not reliant on judicial presence.

Lawyers’ letter to CJI: PM Modi reacts, calls ‘bullying’ typical of Congress culture | Oneindia

After approximately 600 lawyers sent a letter to the Chief Justice of India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a swipe at the Congress party on Thursday. "Using intimidation tactics is typical of Congress culture. Five decades ago, they advocated for a 'committed judiciary' – they shamelessly demand commitment from others for their own selfish interests but refuse to commit to the nation," the PM stated in a post on X. "It's no surprise that 1.4 billion Indians are turning away from them," he concluded. #DYChandrachud #HarishSalve #Pinkyanand #VestedGroup #SupremeCourtofIndia #Letter #SupremeCourt #IndianLaw #LokSabhaElections #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.102~

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~
