YOGYAKARTA - The Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) has asked for the implementation of the 2024 election participating campaign in educational institutions, including universities, not accompanied by violations to create elements of hatred.
"Do not let the elements of hatred and violations spread," said Bawaslu member Totok Hariyono at the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (Fisipol) Universitas Gadjah Mada Yogyakarta as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, August 31.
According to Totok, campaigns in educational institutions, which have been allowed through the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK), must be understood by election participants within the framework of scientific forums. That way, election participants do not need to bring attributes or campaign props.
"Because the Constitutional Court's decision is clear, it is not allowed to use campaign attributes. So, this is a scientific forum. Please argue convey the vision and mission of the program without using attributes and props," he said.

Bawaslupun is ready to implement the Constitutional Court's decision and is not in the capacity to convey an agreement or disagreement regarding the decision.
"Please do it, we will continue to carry out surveillance, although, wherever there is a campaign place, so that there is no just a violation of the campaign," he said.
The Constitutional Court has revised the material of Article 280 paragraph (1) letter h of Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections (UU Pemilu), which states that the executor, participants, and election campaign team are prohibited from using government facilities, places of worship, and educational places; except for government facilities and educational places, as long as they are licensed by the person in charge of the place in question and present without the attributes of the election campaign.
