STAR CAMPAIGNERS

About:

• A recognised political party can have 40 star campaigners and an unrecognised (but registered) political party can have 20.
  
  
• The list of star campaigners has to be communicated to the Chief Electoral Officer and Election Commission within a week from the date of notification of an election.
  
  
• The expenditure incurred on campaigning by such notified star campaigners is exempt from being added to the election expenditure of a candidate. However, this only applies when a star campaigner limits herself to a general campaign for the political party she represents.
