Code of Conduct Breach Leads to Legal Action Amidst Announcement of Electoral Phases. FIR has been filed against Nazrul Islam.
FIR against Nazrul Islam, a member of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) Central Committee, finds himself in legal trouble as an FIR is filed against him for purportedly making derogatory comments aimed at Prime Minister Modi. The complaint, originating from the Sadar Block Development Officer (BDO), accuses Islam of violating the electoral code of conduct. Confirmation of the FIR has come from the Superintendent of Police in Sahibganj, initiating legal proceedings in response to the alleged incident.
Alongside this development, the electoral schedule for Jharkhand has been unveiled, outlining voting across four phases for its 14 Lok Sabha seats. Scheduled dates for voting are set as follows: May 13th, May 20th, May 25th, and June 4th.
Reflecting on the previous Lok Sabha elections, Jharkhand’s voting process was similarly organized into four phases. The BJP-AJSU alliance emerged victorious, securing an impressive 12 out of 14 Lok Sabha seats. Despite a significant registered voter count of 90.87 crore, only 61.3 crore voters exercised their right to vote, highlighting the importance of electoral participation.
