Bhopal, Nov 18: The Madhya Pradesh Congress wrote a letter to the Election Commission on Sunday alleging a violation of model code of conduct by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his address at Chindwara.
It has urged EC to take action against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for alleged violation of Model Code of Conduct in the state ahead of assembly elections.
Modi in his public rally in Chhindwara had said, "Kamal Nath says that Congress will give tickets to goons, all it needs is a candidate who can win." The letter, written by MPCC, however, denies any such claims made by Kamal Nath and clarified that Nath had made no such statement. In the letter, MPCC mentions of a fake video which was circulated amid election period, about which the EC is still investigating. MPPC claims in the letter that a complaint was also registered in the cyber cell. Concluding the letter, Congress Committee said that a person of stature such as Prime Minister should not circulate fake news amid elections polling/campaign. The 230-member Madhya Pradesh Assembly will go to the polls on November 28 and the results will be announced on December 11.
MPCC wrote a letter which said that PM Modi, in one of his rallies, had violated the code of conduct and misguided voters.
MPCC asks the EC to act against PM Modi for his alleged violation of the code of conduct.
