Punjab: Rajpura AAP MLA gets notice, Ferozepur BSP candidate booked for recording voting

Hindustan Times  

Aam Aadmi Party MLA Neena Mittal was issued a notice for violating the election model code of conduct by using her cell phone to videograph her casting the vote at a polling booth in Rajpura on Saturday. A notice was also issued to Sangrur BJP candidate Arvind Khanna for sporting the party symbol inside the polling booth. The Sangrur returning officer reiterated that no one is allowed to show any party symbol within 100 metres of a polling booth on voting day. Meanwhile, Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann had to wait for a while to cast his vote owing to the malfunctioning of the VVPAT machine at the polling booth in Sangrur. Sangrur constituency is seeing a contest between Congress’ Sukhpal Singh Khaira, BJP’s Arvind Khanna, AAP’s Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer, Shiromani Akali Dal’s Iqbal Singh Jhundan and Shiromani Akali Dal candidate Simranjit Singh Mann.
