Election Commission extends ban on rallies, road shows till January 31
The Election Commission has extended its ban on physical poll rallies and road shows ahead of the five Assembly elections scheduled next month till January 31, 2022. This ban was imposed by the Election Commission earlier this month on account of a surge in Covid-19 cases in the country
The announcement comes after the Election Commission held virtual meetings with representatives of the Union Ministry of Health, the chief electoral officers of the five poll-bound states and others to review its decision.
