A criminal case has been registered against Congress leader Naveen Yadav for distributing voter cards to the public in violation of the Model Code of Conduct.
The Model Code of Conduct came into force on Monday evening after the Election Commission of India announced the date for the by-polls for the Jubilee Hills assembly
constituency. The polling will be held on November 11.
The local election officer gave a complaint at the Madhuranagar police station against Naveen Yadav, alleging the leader violated the MCC by distributing the Electoral Photo Identity Cards to voters. A case has been booked against him under the Public Representatives Act.
