Actually it seems very ridiculous & absurd when a sitting & or performing Prime Minister of the nation & the Chief Minister of State campaign & canvass for political parites, as these people are not supposed to be canvassors for any political party, even if they belong to any of the party and they should not be allowed to do so by the Elecdtion Commission itself, but why the E.C. ignores this most unwarranted practice, is not understandable?–dr.amritgaur
