Is PM Modi's 'Mann ki Baat' not violation of code of conduct? Mamata asks EC
To counter the Election Commission's reservation against the 'free ration at doorstep' scheme of the West Bengal government ahead of assembly polls, chief minister Mamata Banerjee asked whether PM Narendra Modi's 'Mann ki Baat' program was not a violation of Model Code of Conduct in place.
"Why do not they (EC) ask Prime Minister Narendra Modi not to go for publicity regarding the vaccine? While through 'Mann ki Baat' everything is going on. Why is not the EC taking action against them? The 'Duare Sarkar' is an ongoing welfare program. We are running the program for the last three months. If we are expanding this, what is the harm?" said the chief minister.
