The posters appeal to vote for Pro Hindu candidates. This campaign goes against the very spirit of constitution and code of conduct issued by EC.
The poster contains statements like.”Then, Sword in one hand and Quran in the other; Now, Fanaticism” Then Jesia for Hindus, Now- Shadi Bhagya, Shadi Mahal, and gifts to minority Journalist” However there is no clear information about author of this post and pamphlet.

"The IndiGo fiasco is the direct result of the govt's monopoly model. And as always, it is ordinary Indians who are paying the price," he said.
Shivakumar said that the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru, which is India's 3rd busiest airport with nearly 40 million travellers a year, is in complete chaos.
"This is hurting families, businesses and our national reputation. I urge the Union Government to act immediately and bring this situation under control. Our people deserve better," he added.
Domestic carrier IndiGo cancelled over 800 flights on Saturday, the fifth day of the ongoing crisis, even as the government imposed a cap on airfares and directed the airline to process all refunds by Sunday evening.
