New Delhi: The Central Election Commission (CEC) has banned the celebration of election results. The commission issued an order banning demonstrations on and after the counting day. The order also allows a maximum of two candidates to accompany the candidates when they arrive to receive the certificate.
The Central Election Commission had convened an emergency meeting this morning. Yesterday, the Madras High Court had sharply criticized the Election Commission. The court’s criticism was based on a flaw in Covid’s control during the election.
The court had pointed out that not a single order of the Election Commission had been complied with. Covid said the second wave was due only to the Election Commission. The Commission could not control political parties. The court also ruled that a murder case should be filed against the Election Commission. The court directed the Election Commission to prepare an accurate plan for the counting day. The court had warned that otherwise the counting of votes would be stopped.
