Scurry to EC over NaMo TV

The Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party complained to the Election Commission on Monday against the launch of a new television channel named “NaMo TV” that allegedly violates the poll code.

Launched on Sunday, the channel is available on most DTH platforms. Its ownership is unknown, and even the registration of its web portal is anonymous on the National Internet Exchange of India website, registry.in.

On Sunday, the BJP’s Twitter handle shared the channel’s launch information with the message: “Capture the colours of elections.… Watch the dance of democracy.… Say NaMo again with NaMo TV. Tune in to get real time coverage of PM Modi’s election campaign and a lot more fascinating content.”
