Haryana's Chief Electoral Officer Anurag Agrawal, stated that with the announcement of the general elections of 2024 Lok Sabha, the Model Code of Conduct has come into effect. Now, the Haryana government cannot announce new development projects. Projects that are already underway will continue. To address complaints of MCC violations, the Election Commission has created the C-Vigil app, where any citizen can submit videos and audio recordings, which will be acted upon within 100 minutes. This app will function as the vigilant eye of the Election Commission.
