In reporting Model Code of Conduct (MCC) violations, data show that Keralites are way ahead of people of other States this Lok Sabha election season. As per the latest data with the Election Commission of India (ECI), Kerala accounts for 66.66% of the complaints filed by the public via the ECI’s cVIGIL app.
Of the 3,55,584 complaints received nationally till 7.35 a.m. on Wednesday, Kerala alone accounts for 2,37,036. And this, when there are States with zero and single-digit complaints!
Karnataka and Uttarakhand, in second and third positions, have respectively 27,632 and 23,177 complaints in total, but nowhere close to Kerala’s tally.
