Election Commission gives clean chit to Modi on Mission Shakti broadcast

While the model code of conduct prohibits government functionaries to address the nation in between the announcement of election dates and the dates of polling via radio or television, DD News had relayed the programme. The national broadcaster explained to the Election Commission that it was not its own telecast but news agency ANI's. ANI, in turn, got it from YouTube. Moreover, Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not make an announcement of any new policy decision, which is prohibited at the time when the model code is in vogue.
