As part of its efforts to guard against forced withdrawal of nominations for the municipal elections, the State Election Commission (SEC) has directed the Returning Officers to accept withdrawals only from the candidates and not through intermediaries.
Further, the SEC ordered that the candidates should not be accompanied by any person at the time of withdrawal to ensure that it was done on own volition.
State Election Commissioner N. Ramesh Kumar said in a press release that despite all those measures, certain instances of forced withdrawal of nominations had been reported in the media and he took a serious note of the incidents.
