New Delhi, Apr 13: In a cautious reaction to the
Supreme Court order for prior EC clearance of political ads,
BJP today said it would study the directive and asserted it
has always been against "personal attacks".
"We have been concerned about the declining levels and
standards of political advertisements as they have been
diverting from the issues of the day. We will study the
Supreme Court order and respond," party General Secretary
Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said when asked about the apex court's
order.
"The BJP has always been against personal attacks in
political campaign and has always favoured campaign based on
issues, policies and programmes," he said.
Naqvi also claimed that the party has not put out any
advertisements so far.
