WITH the announcement of the 2025 Delhi Assembly election date, the Election Commission has imposed the Model Code of Conduct (MCC), and the Delhi government has quickly moved to implement strict directives aimed at curbing the misuse of public resources during the election period.
The General Administration Department (GAD) issued a comprehensive set of instructions on Tuesday, detailing the restrictions on the sanctioning of funds, work orders, and use of government vehicles by officials, ministers, and the Chief Minister (CM). These measures are intended to ensure a level playing field and prevent any undue political advantage during the campaign.
The GAD's orders made it clear that no fresh funds can be sanctioned under any existing schemes, and no new work orders or tenders can be issued during the election period.
