The election Model Code of Conduct (MCC) has come into “full force” in Tiruchi district, Collector M. Pradeep Kumar has said.
Addressing a press conference soon after the notification of Lok Sabha polls by the Election Commission here on Saturday, Mr. Pradeep Kumar said 27 flying squads and an equal number of static surveillance teams, besides a video surveillance and expenditure monitoring team and a video viewing team, have been formed to monitor the enforcement of the MCC in the district.
“Teams will be on duty round-the clock and maintain a vigil against distribution of cash or gifts,” he said. The teams will be deployed in three shifts round-the-clock.
