The Election Commission has directed the chief electoral officer of Karnataka to take “immediate appropriate action” on a complaint filed by JD (S) president H D Deve Gowda that Congress MP D K Suresh was allegedly planning distribution of freebies and the state poll machinery failed to take swift action.
In a letter to the state CEO, the EC asked him to take action keeping in mind the provisions of the model code of conduct and relevant laws, and sought a compliance report at the earliest.
The EC letter was sent out on March 21 based on a complaint of former prime minister Gowda to the poll panel.
