Court's appeal to PM and Election Commissioner - ban rallies to stop third wave

In view of the increasing cases of Corona, the Allahabad High Court has demanded from the Election Commission and Prime Minister Narendra Modi to postpone the assembly elections to be held in Uttar Pradesh next year.

Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav of the Allahabad High Court said, “In order to save the public from the third wave of Corona in the assembly elections in UP, the Election Commission should ban the election rallies of political parties. They should be asked to campaign through TV and newspapers. Also consider postponing the Prime Minister's election, because if there is life, there is a world.

Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav said that about 400 cases are listed with this court. Similarly, cases are listed daily. Because of this a large number of lawyers come. There is no social distancing of any kind between them. They stand close to each other, while the patients of Omicron, the new variant of Corona, are increasing. There is also a possibility of a third wave coming.
