Headlines: EC Asks Petrol Pump Owners To Remove Hoarding With PM Modi’s Photo, Cites MCC Violation

The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Wednesday directed all petrol pump dealers and other agencies to remove hoardings advertising central government schemes that carry photographs of Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the premises of the facilities within 72 hours, an official said. The use of the prime minister’s photograph in such hoardings violates the Model Code of Conduct (MCC), the official of the West Bengal Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) said. Earlier in the day, a Trinamool Congress delegation met ECI officials and alleged that the use of PM Modi’s photographs in hoardings informing people of various central schemes violates the poll code.
