Election Commission allows NCP-SP to accept voluntary contributions from public ahead of Maharashtra assembly elections

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 9 July 2024
Sources said NCP-SP, whose eight-member delegation led by party working president Supriya Sule met the poll panel here on Monday, has also asked for its reserved symbol ‘man blowing turha’ to be made more “bold and prominent” claiming that it being a combination of multiple icons — a turbaned man and turha — is not as discernible to the voter’s eye, as, say, a single-icon symbol like ‘hand’ or ‘lotus’.
