Congress complains to Election Commission against BJP’s misleading advertisements, demands action

He expressed hope that the Election Commission will come forward and use its powers to take action against complaints to ensure level playing field during elections.

“We have raised nine such issues with the Election Commission and we hope it will take action against such fake news and misleading advertisements to ensure a level playing field,” Shrinate said.

Shrinate also alleged that BJP is campaigning on the 2G issue and trying to create confusion. “The courts have said that there is no culprit on the 2G issue, and playing such a video after 10 years is objectionable. We have raised our complaint against the content and urged the Election Commission to remove such a campaign.”

“Second, Modi’s campaign Yes The (Russia-Ukraine) war has been stopped… We have requested the Election Commission to stop such videos from misleading the people. We have also raised the issue of a misleading video using the Army, which has been banned due to implementation of the code of conduct.”

Shrinet claimed that a letter written by the Prime Minister seeking support for ‘Developed India’ was being circulated by the BJP on social media and WhatsApp and he had complained against it.

ECI has said that some issues have already been dealt with, he said. He also alleged that BJP is using religious issues in its campaign.
