The Election Commission of India determined and concerted assault on money power and inducements in the ongoing Lok Sabha Elections has resulted in staggering seizures worth 8889 crore rupees by the concerned law enforcement agencies.
The Poll body said in a statement that enhanced vigilance against inducements, including drugs and psychotropic substances, has resulted in big seizure actions and a continuous surge. Drug seizures worth over 3958 crore rupees amount to 45 % of seizer.
With the increasing intensity of campaigning in the last three phases, the Commission is keeping a close tab on attempts to influence voters through inducements and has directed the CEOs and enforcement agencies to step up the vigil. The crusade against drugs and other inducements by the commission will continue.
