What are the objections raised by Delhi Electoral office panel to AAP’S song?

1

The phrase ‘Jail ke jawaab me hum vote denge’ shows an “aggressive mob” holding a photo of CM Arvind Kejriwal behind bars. The Media Certification and Monitoring Committee, office of the Delhi CEO, said this “casts aspersions on the judiciary”. It also said the phrase appeared several times in the advertisement and contravened provisions of ECI Guidelines dated August 24, 2023, and Rule 6 (1(g) of Programme and Advertising Codes prescribed under the Cable Television Network Rules, 1994. The rule states that any programme that contains aspersions against integrity of the President and Judiciary shall not be carried in the cable service.

The committee’s second objection is that the phrase ‘Tanashahi party ko hum chot denge’,alongsideaclipshowing the protesters and police clash “apparently incites violence”.

It says the phrases ‘gundagardi ke khilaf vote denge’ and ‘tanashahi karne wali party ko hum chot denge’, with a clip showing former Deputy CM Manish Sisodia being escorted by police, “tend to present the picture of police in bad taste. It thus casts aspersions on the working of... police.”

The phrase ‘Awazein khilaf thi jo sabko jail me daal dia, bas unko hi bahar rakha jisne inko maal dia. Itna lalach, itna nafrat,bhrashtacharisemohabbat’ has been flagged “slanderousremarks”.“itisacriticismof the ruling party on the basis of unverifiedfactsandcastsaspersions on the judiciary,” it said.

The phrase ‘Gundo wali party chhodo’ shown with pictures of other political party leaders along with their party symbols has also been flagged as “slanderous remarks addressed to other parties and their leaders”.

The communication states that the phrase ‘Tanashahi party ko hum chot denge’ and video clip showing

“aggressive mob clashing with police” shows “criticism of the ruling party on the basis of unverified facts”. It added that the phrase is repeated several times “which is objectionable”.

The communication stated that the phrase ‘Jail ka jawaab hum vote se denge’ is missing from the submitted transcript.

The phrases ‘Jail ka jawaab hum vote se denge ’,‘ gunda gardi ke khilaf vote denge ’and ‘Tanashahi karne wali party ko hum chot denge’, the committee said, were in contravention of para 2.5 (d) of Programme and Advertising Codes ECI Guidelines dated 24.08.2023 and rule 6 (1) g) prescribed under the Cable Television Network Rules, 1994. Para 2.5 (d) of Programme and Advertising Codes ECI Guidelines talks about certifying political ads, and says that ads criticising other parties or their workers on behalf of unverified allegations or distortions should not be passed.
