Mysore/Mysuru: Mysuru Zilla Panchayat (ZP) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) K.M. Gayathri, who is also the Nodal Officer for Systematic Voters' Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP), said that the election can be successfully conducted only when the officials deputed on election duty are aware of the rules and handle responsibilities as a team and the training programmes come handy in this regard.
Addressing the training programme for Static Surveillance Team (SST), Flying Squad Team (FST) and Sector Officers, organised at Taluk Panchayat (TP) auditorium in Periyapatna yesterday, Gayathri said: “Any individual is permitted to carry only up to Rs. 50,000 during elections. If the cash exceeds Rs. 50,000 and below Rs. 10 lakh, the seized amount should be handed over to District Cash Release Committee. In the case of cash seized above Rs.10 lakh with substantiating documents, it should be brought to the notice of Income Tax Department.”
