"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the intention is to make sure that candidates do not have a rally at the same venue and time where there could be problems of security and public order. That is why this provision of the law is there. The police are very reasonable in advising you. The law does not require you to be given a licence. One is required to give a notification so that the police can inform you whether the venue is free or not. It is not a licence because you are free as a citizen of this country to have meetings where you want under the Constitution. The provision is basically to notify the police so that they can advise you whether that venue is already booked by another candidate and you can choose an alternative venue for your meeting. In the case relating to the presidential candidate, we can talk after this to find out exactly what happened so that we can assist him to hold his rally at another time."
