Lok Sabha Elections 2024: The Election Commission of India (ECI) is implementing measures to enhance transparency in political hoardings. They have issued directives to all states and Union Territories, mandating clear identification of publishers and printers on election-related materials. This move aims to ensure accountability and traceability in campaign communications, addressing concerns about anonymous hoardings.
According to the ECI, the directives will be enforced on all political hoardings to uphold accountability and transparency in campaign messaging. The requirement to disclose the identity of publishers is crucial for regulating campaign financing and ensuring adherence to the Model Code of Conduct and statutory provisions.
This directive from the Election Commission of India builds upon its recent advisory to newspaper editors, urging caution when publishing political advertisements. Together, these initiatives demonstrate the ECI’s commitment to upholding electoral integrity and fostering public trust in the democratic process.
