Panaji:
Monitoring of election-related expenditure and working out effective
means to tackle excessive use of money power during the polls will
be among the major issues to be deliberated on at a conference of
electoral officers and administrative officials to be held in Goa
Tuesday-Wednesday, a senior Election Commission official said
Sunday.
Election Commission Director General Akshay Rauth said that Chief
Election Commissioner S.Y. Quraishi will also attend the two-day
conference.
"The conference will deliberate on various election-related issues.
The aim of the conference will be to put together a comprehensive
document on best electoral practices in the country," Rauth said.
"One of the major issues of focus is to monitor election-related
expenditure and tackling money power," the official also said.
The conference will be attended by district magistrates and police
superintendents from Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and
other union territories located in western India, apart from other
electoral officers from the respective states.
"District magistrates and district superintendent are officials who
actually conduct elections on ground. They will be giving us inputs
on the most effective electoral practices during the conference,"
Rauth said.
