Swift Action Against Vehicle Campaign Slogans

News Today: Election Commission Takes Swift Action Against Campaign Slogans on Vehicles

The Election Commission has reiterated that displaying campaign slogans on vehicles is prohibited, and swift action will be taken against violators. According to the Presidential Election Act, campaign materials, including stickers and slogans, should not be displayed on public or private vehicles. Despite a directive issued several months ago calling for the removal of such materials, the Commission continues to receive complaints that slogans are still visible on buses and three-wheelers.

As a result, the Election Commission has called upon the police to intervene and ensure compliance with the law. This step aims to maintain fairness and legality in the election process. The Commission warns that any vehicle owner or political party who fails to comply will face legal consequences. Police units have been advised to take immediate action in removing campaign materials and addressing complaints from the public.

This move is part of broader efforts to uphold election regulations and ensure that no undue advantage is gained by political parties through illegal campaign strategies. The Election Commission encourages citizens to report any violations they witness, helping maintain the integrity of the electoral process.
