The Delhi Police have registered a case against AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan for violating the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) in place for the Delhi Assembly polls, the police said on Wednesday.

This comes hours before voting got under way in Delhi on Wednesday morning. Khan is the AAP candidate from Okhla.

An FIR was lodged at the Jamia Nagar Police Station after a video surfaced online purportedly showing him distributing stickers and election material in the Batla House area late night on Tuesday, a police source said.

"Based on the video and subsequent investigation, an FIR has been registered. Further inquiries and investigation are under way," the source added.

Campaigning for the Assembly elections ended on Monday evening.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
