An appeal was made to the DGP to ensure the Lok Sabha elections were held in a peaceful, transparent and in a democratic manner. To ensure there were no law and order issues, more paramilitary forces should be deployed in sensitive areas in different constituencies. Enough protection should be provided to the voters and polling personnel as well, said Venkat Swamy in a statement.
Legal action should be initiated against those instigating communal differences among people. Cases should be booked under Cyber Security Act against those, who indulge in false campaigns, mislead people and instigate them through different social media platforms, he added.
