The EC has ordered the take down of the BJP’s derogatory ad
New Delhi:
The Election Commission has ordered microblogging website X to remove an objectionable post by the Karnataka BJP, which the party did not remove even after the state chief electoral officer had ordered to do so earlier.
A first information report (FIR) was already filed over the objectionable post.
“An FIR has already been registered in the matter… However, the post has not been taken down yet,” the Election Commission (EC) in a statement.
The Congress had approached the EC with a complaint against Karnataka BJP chief BY Vijayendra for posting “derogatory” content that could lead to law and order issues.
