Two leaves symbol row: EC reserves order, asks to file written submissions

The Election Commission on Wednesday reserved order in AIADMK two leaves symbol case and asked all parties to file written submissions by November 13.

Earlier, the Supreme Court had asked the Election Commission to decide on which of the two factions of the AIADMK should be allowed to use the symbol by November 10.

Following the demise of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa in December last year, a tug of war had broken out between the two faction.

Both the factions approached the Commission and asked that the official party symbol be given to it.
