The Election Commission in Chhattisgarh has resolved 1,868 of the 1,888 complaints of violation of the Model Code of Conduct received through the cVigil App (Citizen Vigil App), an official communiqué said on Tuesday.

Action is on to resolve the remaining complaints.

Citizens can complain about any violation such as illegal political promotional materials through the application by taking a photo or making a two-minute video or audio recording.

The application connects the complainant to the district control room, returning officer and field verification units (flying squads).

Chief Electoral Officer Reena Babasaheb Kangale herself is monitoring the action taken on the complaints, the communiqué said.
