With the announcement of election dates by the Election Commission, the Model Code of Conduct came into force in the country. Under this, many restrictions also came into effect.

What Is The Model Code Of Conduct?

The Model Code of Conduct has been prepared with the consent of the political parties. All the parties have agreed to follow the principles and standards of the code of conduct in letter and spirit. The special thing is that the Model Code of Conduct has not been made under any law. It has been made only on the basis of consent.

From When To When It Is In Effect?

The Model Code of Conduct comes into force from the day the Election Commission of India issues the notification for the elections. It remains in effect until the election process is completed. During the Lok Sabha polls, the Model Code of Conduct applies throughout the country, while at the time of the Assembly elections, it applies only in the respective state.
