New Delhi [India], October 5 (ANI): Congress leader Deepender Singh Hooda on Friday urged the Election Commission of India (ECI) to immediately transfer the Superintendent of Police (SP) of Bhiwani district, alleging a violation of the Model Code of Conduct (MCC).
Hooda accused the Bhiwani SP of bias against the Congress and of openly supporting the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate JP Dalal, thereby violating the MCC in an attempt to influence the election outcome.
“The Election Commission of India is urged to immediately transfer the Superintendent of Police, Bhiwani, out of the district for being biased against the Congress Party and openly supporting BJP candidate JP Dalal, in violation of the MCC to influence the election results,” Hooda posted on X.
With 2.03 crore voters set to cast their votes, the stage is prepared for the Haryana Legislative Assembly elections in 90 constituencies on Saturday.
This election is a high-stakes contest as the BJP seeks a third consecutive term in power, while the Congress aims to reclaim leadership, leveraging anti-incumbency sentiments and issues such as farmer protests and wrestler demonstrations.
Key contesting parties in Haryana include the BJP, Congress, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), and the pre-poll alliances of Indian National Lok Dal-Bahujan Samaj Party (INLD-BSP) and Jannayak Janta Party-Azad Samaj Party (JJP-ASP).
Voting in Haryana is scheduled for October 5, from 7 am to 6 pm. A total of 1,031 candidates are contesting across all 90 assembly constituencies, with 20,632 polling booths set up for voting.
The results for the Haryana Assembly elections, along with those of Jammu and Kashmir, will be declared on October 8. (ANI)
