Udupi: A complaint has been filed against the leaders of the BJP Yuva Morcha in Udupi for their involvement in a poster campaign that allegedly violated the election code of conduct.

The Udupi Town Police Station registered a case against the BJP Yuva Morcha leaders for organising a poster campaign without obtaining prior permission from the election officer. Moreover, the campaign failed to include essential details about the publisher's information on the printed material, as mandated by the election code of conduct.

The campaign, targeted against the Congress party, saw members pasting posters on the platform pillars of Bannanje KSRTC bus stand and the walls of underpasses along the Coastal Bypass on April 23.

Gautam Shastri, an officer of the Flying Squad Team of Udupi Constituency, took action against the leaders, including Srivatsa, Shivprasad, Dhanush, and others associated with the BJP Yuva Morcha, by issuing fines for their infractions.

Subsequently, a formal case has been filed at the Udupi Town Police Station based on the complaint lodged.
