Warning against poll banners

BBMP Commissioner Siddaiah, who is also the Bangalore Urban District Election Officer, has warned against putting up of hoardings and banners across the city illegally.

A press release from the BBMP said the election code of conduct had been in force since March 20 and putting up of banners and hoardings at public places was a violation of the election code of conduct.

The BBMP authorities would book cases under the Karnataka Open Places (Prevention of Disfigurement) Act if banners and hoardings were put up in the city, Siddaiah said.

He also said political parties should not utilise places of worship like temples, mosques and churches as platform for campaigns.
