BJP writes to ECI, accuses TMC ministers of violating model code of conduct

The BJP on Monday wrote to the Election Commission of India (ECI) alleging that two West Bengal ministers have promised certain benefits to voters in separate incidents after the model code of conduct (MCC) came into force on February 27, and urged the poll panel to debar them from contesting polls. The ruling Trinamool Congress denied that its leaders violated the MCC and accused the saffron party of trying to influence the ECI.
