#SupremeCourt hearing a plea which seeks directions for EVMs not to have party symbols.

ECI must replace political party symbols with the identity of the candidate, plea says.
@AshwiniUpadhyay
Counsel: Up until 1968 there was no such practice. Post the 10th schedule and the Representation People’s Act it came.
When a political leader goes to jail, the people choose their leader, who could be anybody an academician, a teacher. Party symbols interferes with the identity.
