NEW DELHI: The Election Commission
on Tuesday suspended the
recognition of PA Sangma's National
People's Party for failing to file its
election expenditure statement.
This is for the first time that the
poll watchdog has taken such a step
of suspending recognition of a party
using its powers under Election
Symbols (Reservation and Allotment)
Order 1968 "for its failure to follow
the lawful directions of the
Commission," EC said in a
statement.
