The Election Commission has asked the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) to submit details of expenses of its president Raj Thackeray’s election rallies.
Though the MNS is not contesting the Lok Sabha elections, Thackeray held at least ten rallies in Maharashtra last month.
An election official said political parties are bound to disclose their expenses as per the rules.
The BJP had written to the state’s Chief Electoral Officer seeking to know which Lok Sabha candidate would be held accountable for the cost of Raj Thackeray’s campaign.
