The Election Commission issued notices to Dilip Ghosh of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Supriya Shrinate of the Indian National Congress (INC) for their anti-women remarks. Both the politicians reportedly made statements against the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) during their election campaigns. As the regulatory body for elections in India, the ECI takes such matters seriously to ensure fair and respectful campaign practices.

Neither the Election Commission nor any other government concerned seems to have found the comments made by some individuals to be disrespectful and negative. The mentioned characters are Ghosh, who presumably refers to a political figure, and Shrinate’s who appears to be another person who is involved in public speaking Ghosh’s remarks are against CM Mamata Banerjee, Shrinate’s remarks are against Kangana Ranaut. The Election Commission or the government concerned has asked Ghosh and Shrinate to respond to these allegations by Friday, March 29 at 5 p.m. This indicates that there may be other possible consequences or actions based on their response.

The article you submitted refers to a specific section of the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) that deals with the expected conduct of political parties and candidates during elections. Summarize the paragraph and its meaning: Criticism of only institutional policies: Political parties and candidates are allowed to criticize other parties, but such criticism should be limited to their institutional policies. This means that criticism should focus on the political positions, practices and ideas presented by the opposition rather than personal attacks or unrelated issues Avoiding Criticism of Private Lives: Criticism should not extend to the private lives of leaders or other activist groups, unless those aspects are directly related to their public activities. The purpose of this section is to promote respect and decency in political discourse by preventing the use of personal information for political gain. Avoiding accusations or distortions: Criticism should be based on verified facts and should not spread unsubstantiated allegations or distort facts. This emphasizes the importance of truth and honesty in political communication, and discourages disinformation or manipulation of resources. Overall, this section serves to promote fair and respectful campaign practices in elections, and focuses on key issues rather than personal attacks or deceptive tactics, fundamental violations of this guideline can be viewed as it is a violation of the Model Code of Conduct and can be investigated or punished by the election authorities.

The story you mentioned was about Congress leader Supriya Shrinate and Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut being nominated as the BJP candidate from Mandi in Himachal Pradesh. Shrinate sparked controversy over the offensive post from her Instagram handle, which was apparently aimed at insulting Ranaut. The since deleted post asked about the current market price in Mandi, and a picture of Ranaut. The incident may have created a huge tension between the two political camps, as Ranaut’s candidature under the BJP banner could have been a controversial issue for the Congress party represented by Shrinate. Such issues tend to attract attention for political and human reasons for celebrity networks.

Shrinette appeared to clarify that someone else posted “highly inappropriate” comments on her Facebook and Instagram accounts, suggesting that multiple people have access to those accounts. This explanation suggests that he is not responsible for the post in question and that it was done by someone else with access to his accounts. The saffron camp strongly condemned the grand old party’s remarks and accused its leader of trying to assassinate Ranaut’s character. The Party stressed that such highly offensive and inappropriate comments showed a lack of respect by Parliament for the Activity Act.
