The said creative/ advertisement was returned along with the observations with the request to modify the contents of the creative as per the Advertising Codes...," the clarification issued by the Delhi's poll body read.
It said it asked AAP to resubmit the song with prescribed modification and also inform the party that if they do not agree with the decision of the Committee, they may file an appeal before the State Level Media Certification and Monitoring Committee (MCMC).
