Congress finds BJP adverts objectionable in Meghalaya
The Congress Party has strongly objected to the BJP advertisement against Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma. It has demanded action against the BJP for publishing a defamatory advertisement.
Shillong: The Congress Party has strongly objected to the BJP advertisement against Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma. It has demanded action against the BJP for publishing a defamatory advertisement.
The BJP had published an advertisement in local dailies showing Mukul Sangma’s pic with a caption that read - "15 years of Congress rule: Mass exodus of youth from the state for lack of job opportunities.
BJP promises: Provide one job opportunity for every youth". The congress feels the ad is in bad taste and defames Mukul Sangma, State Congress working president James S Lyngdoh said it warranted criminal prosecution. He said the publication of such an advertisement attracted penalty under sections 499 and 500 (defamation) of the IPC.
State’s Chief Electoral Officer FR Kharkongor said he had received a complaint and added he would look into the issue. Meghalaya is going to polls on February 27 and the NDA alliance and the Congress are locked in a poll battle in the tiny North eatern state.
