PM ’address to nation’ on ’Mission Shakti’ didn’t violate model code: Election Commission
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to the nation on the successful test-firing of an anti-satellite missile did not violate provisions of the model code of conduct, the Election Commission said Friday night. The poll panel took the decision based on the report of a committee of officers which concluded that the prime minister's address did not violate the provisions for 'party in power' in the poll code. The Commission said the panel set up by it examined the PM's address in the light of the provision in the model code dealing with 'Party in Power'. Declaring India has established itself as a global space power after the success of the operation 'Mission Shakti', Modi said the missile hit a live satellite flying in a Low Earth Orbit after it traversed a distance of almost 300 km from earth within three minutes of its launch.
