Mandya: In Indian villages, electricity poles and switchboards often serve as de facto walls that announce key events including death of an eminent personality in the locality, or birth anniversaries. But we have pasted photographs of some respected elders of our villages as a mark of respect. The EC staff has removed many of these posters.”Among the posters that have been targetted is an advertisement board from which the popular Kannada actor Upendra’s visage beamed.

Upendra’s face has now been obscured.
