The Delhi State Election Commission also issued a number of restrictions on Tuesday in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. The MCC will come into force in Delhi when dates for civic elections are announced.

The commission limited the number of star campaigners to 10 for recognised parties and five for unrecognised ones, besides imposing other restrictions. According to the MCC guidelines, no meetings or processions beyond 8 pm can take place, no roadshow, bike and cycle rallies can happen without prior permission. 

The MCC will come into force in Delhi when dates for civic elections are announced.

Other MCC guidelines include a limit of 50 people in street corner meetings and only five persons including the candidate to be allowed for door-to-door campaigns.

Additionally, the sources said that State Election Commissioner SK Srivastava on Tuesday convened a meeting to review the Covid-19 conditions in the city and also the situation of law and order ahead of the announcement of the schedule for civic polls.

Such meetings/processions will not be allowed to continue beyond 8 PM and will be further subject to other relevant considerations like weather conditions, festival season, examination period, etc.

– The parties can use loudspeakers only between 8 AM and 8 PM.

– While taking out procession or padyatra during campaigning for the election, a candidate and his workers “can hold up to a maximum of five flags for one procession. The size of the flag will be 3 ft by 2 ft.

– There will be a ban on sale, service and consumption of liquor and other intoxicating liquor and drinks in the areas of 272 wards of Municipal Corporation of Delhi and their surrounding areas on the day of polling and two days preceding the poll to ensure free and peaceful poll.

– Dry days shall be declared and notified under relevant laws in the 272 wards of Municipal Corporation of Delhi on the date of poll and two days preceding the poll and on the day of the counting of votes.

– The MCC guidelines put special emphasis on adherence to Covid-19-appropriate behaviour and advised authorities to ensure social distancing at polling booths.

Meanwhile, Delhi State Election Commission of Delhi had last week increased the limit of expenditure that can be incurred by a candidate in the elections for the city’s three municipal corporations — North, East and South — to Rs 8 lakh from Rs 5.75 lakh.

There are 104 wards each in the North and the South Delhi Municipal Corporations. The East Delhi Municipal Corporation has 64 wards. Half of the wards are reserved for women candidates. There are wards reserved for Scheduled Castes candidates as well.

In the last MCD polls in Delhi, the BJP registered an impressive victory, returning to power in the three corporations by winning 181 of the 272 wards.

Its closest rival AAP managed to win only 49 wards, while the Congress bagged 31 wards in the 2017 elections. Independent candidates won three wards in North Delhi, four in South Delhi and one in East Delhi.
