Election commission powers
in General Discussions
Government deny that there is any move to give statutory shape to model code of conduct presently based on executive instructions of CEC. There is proof to the contrary.

However as long as union cabinet does not take decision, the notes are internal matters and these not be given the type of importance given by media.

What is wrong if the code of conduct is made statutory and subject to court jurisdiction instead of election commission.

    I think election commission has any power to have its orders carried out. However that would make it more strict if it takes the shape of full fledged law.

    No doubt election commission has authority. But the issue is what should be check and balances. No authority can be absolute. Election commission job is to conduct free and fair elections. How far it is correct to stop functioning of central government and state governments in name of model code of conduct. Even Union Budget is being delayed owing to model conduct conduct for a few state assemblies.

    It is necessary to codify the model code of conduct statutorily and election commission authority must be subject to judicial review.

    The Chief Election commissioner wants more severe fines for model code violation. But he wants that these be not statutory. However, no authority including CEC can be given unfettered powers. The code of conduct should be well defined, normalcy during elections should not be disturbed and there should be provision for appeal in court against CEC decision.
