Lok Sabha Elections 2019: Should the poll code undergo revision?

The Supreme Court Monday agreed to hear Tuesday a Congress MP's plea seeking direction to the Election Commission to decide without any "demur" the complaints against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP President Amit Shah on their alleged hate speeches and using armed forces for "political propaganda".

A bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi took note of the submissions of senior advocate A M Singhvi that the plea of Sushmita Dev, Congress Lok Sabha MP from Silchar in Assam, be accorded an urgent hearing as EC has not taken any decision on complaints of model code of conduct (MCC) violations against PM Narendra Modi and Amit Shah.
