The Congress Government on Thursday said it will file a complaint with the State Election Commission against the NDA Government at the Centre for allegedly publishing advertisements in newspapers in violation of poll code of conduct for the two-phase Gram Panchayat elections beginning tomorrow.

The model code of conduct is effective from May 10 to June 7.

Addressing presspersons here, Social Welfare Minister H. Anjaneya said "’we are lodging a complaint against the Narendra Modi government for violating poll code of conduct by publishing government ads in newspaper."

The Central government has published the ‘Annadaata Sukhi Bhava’ advertisement which is a part of celebrations of one-year of Modi’s government coming to power.
