The film was earlier set to release on April 11.<\/p>\n<p>Acting on the complaints of political parties, including the Congress, the poll panel had also said that any poster or publicity material concerning any such certified content, which either depicts a candidate (including prospective) for the furtherance (or purported to further) of electoral prospects, directly or indirectly, shall not be put on display in electronic media in the area where MCC is in force.<\/p>\n<p>The Left had also opposed the release of the film, saying it would disturb the level-playing field for other parties in the election and was in violation of the Model Code of Conduct.<\/p>\n<p>The Modi biopic, starring Vivek Oberoi, has been the most-talked about movie this election season. Directed by Omung Kumar, it tells the story of Modi&#8217;s rise to power from his humble beginnings.<\/p>\n<p>The apex court had on April 9 dismissed a petition filed by a Congress leader Aman Panwar seeking a stay on the release of the biopic, saying the Election Commission would be an &#8220;appropriate&#8221; place to seek the redressal.<\/p>\n<p>The apex court had said it was not entertaining the petition for the stay on the release of the film which would be &#8220;premature&#8221; in view of the fact that the movie is yet to be certified by the Censor Board.<\/p>\n<p>It said even if the film is released on April 11, as claimed by the Congress leader, it will be appropriate for him to seek a redressal from the Election Commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Election Commission on Monday submitted its detailed report to the Supreme Court on the biopic of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
