THRISSUR: Wadakkancherry MLA Anil Akkara alleged violation of model code of conduct against Minister for Local Self Government A C Moideen. He complained that the minister cast his vote before the polling time. The minister voted at 6.55 am and left, alleged Akkara.

He urged the election commission to take action on the incident. The time to vote is the same whether you are a minister or an ordinary man. It is the responsibility of the minister to adopt democratic etiquette in his own place. The MLA said that the elections are being held under this department.
