The CM also approved the proposal to give 90% relaxation in monthly passes for female passengers in the roadways buses. Women will have to pay only 10% of the fixed amount for the monthly pass. The EC announced the elections at 12 noon.
“It is very clear any kind of transfers and appointments can’t be executed after the model code of conduct (MCC) comes into effect. Even if the appointment order has been issued in time before the EC press conference was going on, its compliance won’t be possible. With regard to transfers and appointments, they (the officials) cannot join without the permission of the commission,” Praveen Gupta, chief electoral officer, Rajatshan.
