The National Election Commission has issued a directive to immediately remove election campaign stickers displayed on vehicles.
In a statement, the Election Commission says it has received numerous complaints regarding private vehicles, including buses and three-wheelers, which display stickers with images and symbols of various election candidates.
Noting that this was a violation of the Presidential Elections Act of 1981, the Election Commission said that all such stickers on motor vehicles must be removed immediately and notes that instructions have been issued to police stations islandwide to enforce this move.
