Following the announcement of the election dates, the Model Code of Conduct will come into effect nationwide.
This code, established to ensure impartial conduct of elections, imposes restrictions such as prohibiting the announcement or inauguration of any government scheme and the use of government vehicles or residences for campaigning by politicians or candidates.
