NEW DELHI: The BJP has sought permission from the Chief Electoral Office of Delhi to air two movies “Padman and Toilet-Ek Prem Katha” on NaMo TV, officials here said Thursday.
The Delhi poll body has now written to the Election Commission, seeking clarity whether it can certify movies already cleared by the Censor Board.
Last month, the EC said all recorded programmes broadcast on NaMo TV be pre-certified.
Last week, the Bharatiya Janata Party applied for pre-certification of the two Akshay Kumar-starer movies to the media certification and monitoring committee of Delhi’s Chief Electoral Office.
“We have written to the EC, seeking clarity on this because the movies have already been released. The reply from EC is awaited on whether we can certify the films again when they already have the certification of the Censor Board,” a Delhi poll body official said.
He said the application is pending for clearance. (AGENCIES)
