So far, Mumbai had complaints related to the display of banners and hoardings without permission and property defacement.

It connects citizens with the District Control Room, Returning Officer and Flying Squads, creating a rapid action and monitoring system."While speaking to Lokmat Times, the Nodal Officer said, "So far 5 complaints have been filed from Mumbai South Central and Mumbai South. Mumbai's election is in the 5th phase, around 20 May, the complaints may increase when elections are near and political parties intensify their campaigning."Upon the filing of a complaint, the flying squad is expected to arrive at the location within 25 minutes of the complaint being lodged. The complainant is required to capture either a photograph or a two-minute video depicting the violation of the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) and submit the complaint accordingly. The GIS information associated with the complaint directs it to the relevant District Control Room, enabling flying squads to promptly respond to the situation. Subsequently, the cVIGIL investigator will assess the complaint, with the Assistant Returning Officer serving as the final decision-maker in cVIGIL cases
