Chhattisgarh: Election Commission Cracks Down on Dormant Parties
The Election Commission is checking up on political parties in Chhattisgarh to make sure they are active.
They sent notices to seven parties that haven't been doing much since 2019.
These parties haven't run in elections or kept offices open.
Now, election officials will look into the parties and decide what to do.
This is part of a bigger plan to keep things fair and make sure only real parties are involved in politics.
