As the hoarding was a “violation of the Model Code of Conduct”, the officials removed it. Furious Ghosh said, “Had it been done in my presence, I would have removed the trousers of the poll official”.

“We have taken notice of his comment. He has been served a show cause notice,” an Election Commission official said.
