The Election Commission (EC) has added a new electoral symbol, ‘Shapla Kali,’ to its official list. A gazette notification issued on Thursday (October 30) by the EC Secretariat confirmed the inclusion.
According to the notification, under Article 94 of the 1972 Constitution and through an amendment to the Election Conduct Rules, 2008, the symbol list has been updated. The revised rule states that any candidate may be allotted one available symbol from the approved list, excluding any suspended symbols under Article 20.
The new symbol, ‘Shapla Kali,’ has been listed as number 102 in the updated EC symbol registry.
